Our eyes met for the first time in a long while
There was pain
But that was to be expected
I am no longer sure that I am more wrecked
For you asked me a question
And I paused a second, thinking
Replying a moment too late
We can still make jokes at each others expense
I am not sure how much they hurt you
But they still sting my heart
