Past and Present

@Uootem

This feels so awkward, you and I just passing by
what goes through your mind... I wonder
When we cross each other's paths
A nod, a friendly smile, almost strangers.
How did it all come to this... I always must ask why?

I remember a time when you really saw me
It seems just like a short while ago...
Do you ever think about the way we were?
Do you think about the past once shared?
Or have you forgotten what was once meant to be?

I know not what to do in your presence
Nor what to say... all senses and words are choked
So instead my eyes divert the other way
I catch a glance to see you do the same,
this is so insane!... none of this makes sense!

When we were very close once long ago
All those memories and happy times...
Is it a memory you want no part of?
Do you remember or recall nothing at all?
Do you remember the love we used to know?

And now it is as if it doesn't even matter at all
As if the our time of loving never existed.
but then why can't I forget the pain?
Why must I dream what I always dream?
Why do I wait for another chance in love to fall?

Because I love you... past and present.
