Last night,
when I closed my eyes,
I saw the moon
so full and so bright.
I fell asleep smiling.

I loved you in the silent ways—
In passing glances, not bouquets.
In stolen time, in coffee sips,
In words I never let slip past my lips.

You never asked, I never said,
But still, you lived inside my head.
A gentle ache I couldn't name,
A spark too soft to turn to flame.

I tried to shine, to be their light,
To keep things close, to make it right.
But their hearts stray, disloyal, cold,
Leaving behind stories untold.

I'm done with chasing, done with tears,
Done with doubts and hidden fears.
I just want friends, no gams, no ends,
Just simple trust, the love of friends....

My friends used
To always be around
Good times, bad times
It didn't really matter
Every day was a new
Exciting adventure

Fast forward 10 years
Our group is scattered
All over the world and
We've become merely
Memoirs to reminisce
On my insomnia nights
