Crossing the Street

I stand on the sidewalk,

After meeting old friends

After we drank coffee and talked,

About how we've all been

What I didn't expect was you,

Standing right behind me,

Your voice heard despite the storm,

As you spoke on the phone with somebody

I needn't turn around to know for sure,

Cause I'd know that voice anywhere:

It's the voice my mind had to endure,

When my heart once played it on loop in despair

An old flame's embers rose from the ashes,

But I keep it locked away

Cause that flame once caused me several gashes,

Due to my decision to stay

So here I cross the street,

When we're on the same side,

Although we didn't once again meet,

Here I bid my final goodbye.
