Today is a beautiful autumn day
but I can't get out of bed.
Yesterday, I saw him again.
He was strolling with her
across the elm trees promenade.
They looked so happy and content,
the way we once were
a thousand years ago.
The last thing he said to me,
"don't worry my dear,
we can still be friends."
Can men and women be friends?
I smiled and walked away
swallowing my tears and pain.
Last night I dreamed of us,
a cruel copy of our past.
Your body straddled on mine,
my legs wrapped around you
and our eyes locked
wandering into the abyss
of our souls and lives.
Can men and women be friends?
I thought you were the one.
We shared so much ...
passion
laughter
adventures
near and far.
Can men and women be friends?
