Crossed My Mind
Maybe he did not know that I felt some kind of way about
What he did not say
But then again he and I had been friends
He had to know how the absence of truth
Could slay a relationship that was built on words
Silence turned my verbal glee into withdrawal
It was the proof
That what we had was no more and my disappointment boiled
I listened to his-story and he listened to her-story
Year after year we were seldom in a hurry
But it’s alright
He’s asleep now
My Dearest one
Good night
