Hitch Hiker

Did I hitch a ride on your heart?
Or did you take mine for a ride?
Two strangers, we did meet,
and in each other did confide.
All the little things
we could not tell our 'other'.
Who would have ever guessed,
we'd become hooked upon each other?
Life's lonely stretch of highway
brought us both together.
I never thought you would
forsake our friendship--forever.
So I'll walk this road alone,
memories filling my ruck sack.
And since you are not there...
there's no reason to look back.
