Together Never
She cried as she sat on the phone with him.
If only he knew, but he can’t know
She’s never told him, and to realize it
He’d have to hear the pain in her voice
It had been months since she’d been with him
But her heart still longed for his touch
She still longed to hear I love you
They talked every so often
He would call just to ask how she was doing
She’d answer fine, but she wasn’t
Because every time she heard his voice
Her heart broke all over again
It had been her mistake
She had been too young
But she was older now, more mature
He thought she was different
There was nothing she could do about it now
The mistake had been made
Their paths parted forever
All that was left, was that one phone call
Every two or three weeks
Where she listened to his wonderful voice
And silently cried her heart out to an uncaring world
But he never knew
