we've gone from strangers in the dark
the nighttime glow of excitementย
fingers brushing
faces flushing
now things are different
i hold a warmer hand
i don't look at you the same way
my heart's not racing like before
though i don't long for our previous intimacy
the kisses and warmth are forever gone
i miss you achingly
our late night evening conversations without hearts rushing
the care we shared for each other was pure
although the heat is gone
i did this to myself
i lost a best friend
i wrote this about a boy i used to love. i missed his friendship deeply, even if i was happier with a new relationship
