• I turn off the lights in the dark of night
    and try to sort this out
    i close my eyes, hide inside
    and try and remember how it went down
    the card is placed in my hand
    i unfold it opening your heart
    that message written that has faded black
    and lost in the depth on my mind
    i unfold the second part of your heart,
    your trademark
    a quarter taped with care
    i smile greatly, confused, embarrassed
    he see's it in my eyes
    tries and tries
    to come up with an excuse
    " Thanks for not going to the dark side "
    i come back to reality now
    with the clock ticking down
    five years becomes six my heart in a twist
    for i never did confess,
    for my heart felt the same way yet i was
    to foolish to say
    we have not seen or spoken since that day
    and i'm hoping he feels the same way for
    my thoughts the same, as if we were
    second grade
    but most my memories have fade
    is this even the right date?
    what did the card say?
    and does he still feel this way?
