Washington

Remember the day we looked at the ocean together?
The city of pyramids at our back
Spirals gleaming and catching your eye
The shirt clung close to your skin
You snapped my picture as the wind caught my hair
And flung it across my face

Remember the night when I returned home?
Your friends knew all about it
The walk in the park
The lunch we had had
The day we had spent together and enjoyed
Honored to know that

Remember the month I was near you?
I'm sure that you don't
Ignoring my calls
Making excuses
Shunning me away
I fled from that state without seeing you once

Now we're strangers again
Which is how you want it
