When we parted
I didn't realize
How long that would be
And what it meant
When we didn't even say "goodbye"
Was it because we didn't want to?
I know I didn't.
Eight entire months
Nothing.
So I show up where I knew you'd be
And you didn't hesitate
Smiles, a hug, light, joking conversation.
And it all "came flooding back" -
As cliche as that is.
But it's true.
So now that I'm here still,
And you're not,
We're back to that silence.
So excuse me for being confused
And conflicted,
I should have made it clear
That I really want this.
I just need to know if
You do too.
