I met a dumb boy a year ago today
And it feels me with memories that are bad and good
It is now that I find myself alone
With anger and sadness and bittersweet happiness
Because a lot can change in a short amount of time
You can lose track of the other
And not bother to call or text or leave a message
You can hope that one day
He will appear at your door
But he won't
You will find no one knocking
Because he did not come
The three knocks were in your head
The sound of him was your imagination
I listened to the revival of a holy ghost
Imagining you dancing around
Silly now, how I love the folk sound
Because you loved it
There was no we
It was only you and I
We dance alone
I met a boy a year ago today
And he left a long time ago
