Fourty-Five| So Close Yet

Past memories allow me to know you're still here,

It's the same you.

You're next to me

And I can see you smile from the corner of my eye.

And you're happy.

And I'm happy for you.

Only wishing you were closer and even near.

Now I can understand how something can be so close.  .  .

Yet so far.

How someone can sit next to you

And they've already left.

How you can love someone

And pretend not to notice how they suck in their bottom lip before they smile.

How you can pretend to forget every single thing about them,

And how they can believe you've forgotten those things about them.
