He said to me.
"Can't we just be friends?"
Oh man, it does hurt
but obviously I have to say yes.
It's been a while.
We don't really talk.

try to hang out.
With skateboards

Mimicking the old times.
That was what we had in common.
Slowly, slowly
the atmosphere turns warmer.
Oh, look, it's laughter.
I guess I can deal with this.
It's my own consequences.
So, we're just friends.
