What would have happened if ego would have sat away?
The lack of effort is what turned us gray.
The rose that dangled in my face was a tease.
You were the one to make me grin, to put me at ease.
The clock ticked closer to no remains.
And as I sit here, all that’s left is the pain.
I never apologize, it’s my pride.
I stayed bitter because what if we had tried?
I was nervous when I saw you in your suit.
You forgot who you were with, being the forbidden fruit.
A year goes by and you see me in my navy lace dress.
Your eyes let me know that I could impress.
It’s been a year now and we haven’t spoken a word.
But what is compelling is what I have heard.
The rumors go this way:
“He talked about you every single day”
Maybe I walked away too soon.
Maybe you could have gone to the moon.
Here it is, I’m sorry for my outburst.
But a friendship shouldn’t be forced.
