I still remember; those seasons change
Those promises; those friendships age
I see those dark figures and bonds so real
Maybe they were all ghosts, set out to steal
I’ve seen you, getting drenched in rain
Getting tired of walking, always high on talking
I’ve seen you cry, red faced and flustered
Remember our giggles, through all the struggles
I keep reading, those worn out letters
Sniffing and smiling, our burgundy sweaters
I feel your fingers, locked with mine
That caress of thumb, that whiff of autumn
Why did it all fall apart?
Why do these memories keep haunting?
Why does your laugh makes me cry?
When does it get better,
How long do I try?
