I'll still call for your name

I still call for your name against this sea
Of loud beats, bright lights, and screaming people.
I see you dancing your heart out
Sweat dripping from your face
Passion burning in your eyes.
I still call for your name even though I know
You will not answer even though you hear me or not.
I still call for your name even though they ask me
Why I still do now that we’re
No more than strangers with some memories.
I smile at them and say because I do not
Take the years for granted and I never will.
I still call for your name. You walk by me
And your eyes meet mine. Long ago, I used to know
All the words that your eyes and your silence speaks of.
Now I don’t even know what they are trying to tell me.
Do they tell me you miss me or that you never
Even loved me at all?  I am only left to wonder.
I still call for your name
Even though there are more
That I want to say.
I still call for your name
Even though I know
You will not answer
Either you hear me or not.
