How long has it been,
my friend,
since we’ve talked?
Did I cause the change,
the new attitude
in your walk?
Do you still hurt?
Could you still care?
Why won’t you say something
instead of just stare?
Are you the result
of my coldness?
Did I play a part?
Did I cause the bitterness
that shines through
in your heart?
I cannot look
into your eyes
for I am afraid
of what I see,
after all that I
put you through
why do you still love me?
Will it ever be again
like the days of old?
All the while I’m wondering
I shake my head,
silently,
“no.”
