Imbroglio
Be my friend, No, not ever again, will you?
Talk with me, No, not even that, can you?
Reach to me, No, not to be, it’s true.
Run ahead, Yes, be not near, don’t see me.
Act the part, Yes, act a stranger, just free me.
Now again, Yes, I’m the stranger, can't you see.
Gone for good, the care that stood, between us.
Here now stands, the emptiness, between us.
As we were, and as we’ll be, now we are 2 strangers.
