Today At Lunch

I came to see you today at lunch, sure it was for all my old friends but especially for you It doesn’t happen often, I live an hour away from the school I would’ve gone to And although I felt so connected to the knots re-tied from ropes I’d cut Your looks, your touch, gave me this sinking feeling in my gut When we text and message your words seem to flow so much more free You tell me just how desperately you want to be face to face with me I didn’t expect a grand parade, just about an hour to spend With you, and those who I miss and all those who I call my friends But when I arrived our hugs were short and sparse Your empty gaze it couldn’t fill my heart But lack of looks, words and touches weren’t the worst yet What’s even worse was that you left Off to the sports field you left to play With people you see every day I know it was a lot, but I still thought you’d still stay I thought I was more important than some frisbee game You pushed me from your arms what seemed without care Called your girl to chat when I was right there Apologized the whole damn while Asked “what’s wrong” with a gentle smile You asked “what’s wrong” but I think it’s a little obvious That you just walked off when I travelled an hour to make time for us So to answer what you asked, why I feel so blue Is because today I felt so lonely when I sat beside you
