You acted like you weren’t aware
I acted like I didn’t care
We both act like it isn’ t there
A glare, a stare, flair, affair.
You crack a joke
I try not to notice the way you spoke
Whatever from me you took
A look, a book, smoke, woke.
We try to recall until
It stings a little, will
You make me feel
A still, a thrill, surreal , real.
And then bridges, burn
It caught, in naught, spurned.
Will we ever learn, a second turn?
A morn, a mourn, return, yearn.
