The boy across the street.

I guess it is easier to admit this way,
but why must we fool ourselves?

I am sure you wonder what may. . .

The events that went out of control,
we could not patrol.

and with our separate lives began ,
not thinking we will cross again.

Maybe you came to realize. . . .

it could not be goodbye.
but that was your demise.

you told me the truth,
but I already started a new root.

So we broke each others hearts. . .

We tried to move on,
but the thought would not be gone.

I guess it is easier to admit this way,
but we ask ourselves on what may,

You will always be the boy across the street.

In time I am the girl who became a ghost,
still the one you wanted to most.

as the years pass through,
I see a tattoo that is new.

You had to respond to your old name. . .

Soon you realize it is me,
how happy should you be?

so much emotion to hide,
with what time has bide.

Lost for words when we meet. . . .

Your about to be a father,
and I already a mother.

lives that fell through the cracks,
filling in the gaps.

dodging what we should say. . .

Will we move in spade,
with all the time we made?

time to say goodbye,
and a hug went by.

before we are gone,
a second hug begun
