Banned

I couldn't tell you why we do what we do.
You banned me so I banned you.
What I am wondering is what made you so mad.
I may never understand, and that is so sad.

It's difficult to realize why I am still here.
It wasn't my time and time must be dear.
I'm not sure if I'm glad or feel down.
That sounds awful and I may form a frown.

I have come to admit I have opened the door.
You are not banned from me anymore.
I will be here if you alter your mind.
I have found that real friends are not simple to find.

I don't recognize why we do what we do.
I guess I will one day - when my day is due.
