One For The Road

A slice of moon in the night sky,
As the breeze whispers through the drapes;
Streaks of light in my dreamy mind,
Thoughts tracing out familiar shapes.

I think of you, our moment,
Frozen in time, framed in silver,
Remember the smile on your lips
And your carefree promise of forever.

I stayed back, sighed a silent goodbye,
As you walked past, out through that door;
Caught a glimpse of the sparkle in your look,
That which wasn't mine anymore.

How strange that it hurts you not
To greet me now like we never cared,
To not see that nothing else I felt
Could ruin what we already shared.

How strange it is to be in such a place,
Knowing there's nowhere else to go:
Wonder if you ever felt all this too,
Wonder if you know you had touched me so.
