He smelled like smoke & a sleepless night
I hugged his back, asked if he was alright
He said he felt like ****
& took one more hit
From that cigarette of his.
I grabbed a smoke & sat to his left
His eyes weren't bright but still they were deft
He looked up at the sky
I saw his thoughts fly
I'd never seen him feel so blue
He said he missed home & this girl he once knew
I felt like crying, he felt that too
I sat there smoking, not knowing what to do
I began making sense of the truth
He held me close
but I could see
there was nothing left of "you & me"
He was in love with her & I with him
I felt my heart go completely dim
I went back inside
Hoped to die
& never woke up to see those brown eyes
I'd drifted in sleep
Counted too many sheep
Simply because there was no more "you & me"
