Rainau Hu Poet I do not know?

I Did Know Your Name, Once

Hey
Do I know her?
She looks familiar
Maybe I did

Hey
Do I know you?
You look familiar
But you don't think so

I remember now
I remember you, that time
We sat in class together
We were always sitting together

But no, you say no
I don't know your face
You are mistaken
Yet I try again

I remember now
I remember us, you were
My very best friend
We were always around each other

You shake your head
I excuse myself
Turning away
In part because of shame

Because I did know your name, once
but I forgot, and now 
I wonder, because
You did know my name once, too
