"Hey" he says
and from there my life is of to the races

The last night talking
the "it's 1 am already???"

then when what already was is confirmed
with an "I want a relationship"

next comes the slow and sad decline
the words "we are drifting apart"

suddenly, you know the reason
hateful words and actions burst forth

finally, the realization
that you still love him, but it's to late...

the long, silent nights of tears follow
when regret replace the forgotten smiles

"Hey" he says
a new chapter begins with someone new
