Venture Back

Walking down the street With the stars in your eyes I look at my feet As I walk slowly by I see you with her Today but never again You weren't the guy I thought you were Not the guy you should've been I cross my arms tightly And look straight ahead I think about you nightly But too much goes unsaid Your locker is beside mine I look away from you But in the mirror I see your eyes shine As you stare at me, through and through We don't talk enough Or not as much as we should But your just you, big and tough You and I... well we never could Three girls in one day You've broken the record I don't have anything else to say I have to pray to the Lord But you know even if you did Ask of me one day I would say that you have slid Way too far away And if you venture back to me To the guy I thought you were Maybe then you will see That you're best for me... not her...

A good poetic flow of subject ... and he bringing you into a quadrangle ... I guess that is squarer than a triangle (smile). I love the humanness ... the contemplation of the surrendered possiblity. good write.
