“Let’s watch the sun rise,” you said.
While I bore my eyes into the light, you were watching through the reflection in my eyes.

“Let’s go out for dinner,” you said.
While I shuffled around each calorie to avoid question, you shuffled in your seat – nervous to know if you would get to take me out again.

“Let’s go to the movies,” you said.
While I raved about the film, you thought about the way my hand felt in yours.

“Goodnight,” you said.
While I questioned what was really in your heart, you thought about what it would be like to wake up next to me.

“Goodbye,” I said.
And I felt nothing.
While you felt *everything I didn’t.
