If only you could feel And if you didn't have to conceal If you had the power to touch Would you cherish me as much? Many years now I have remained In the back of your mind with memories you retain An image and last hope you can't comprehend And you still believe that I'm your only friend Fall evenings and you were mine A clue to the mystery I have yet to find A thought and a dream so many worlds away You pursued my devotion without any delay Late afternoon breeze and you were afraid Didn't think you could escape from the incredible maze Repetitious melodies from the birds I couldn't speak so you wrote down the words A distant while I drifted from thought Fragrant spring flowers and a change was brought Next season your mind was far and body so close And I didn't wish to make the greeting toast You pulled out and it was a different gear For you much better; there was far less fear And now I ask if you need me as before I want to be the one and only you truly adore If you could tap the sensation with a single reflection Would I experience your longing or simple rejection? If you could exist as me for one in the same Would you still treat it as a sort of game? I miss your innocence and solitude play I realized you've changed but I wish you would stay I know I can't be seen or physically felt But remember that without me you couldn't have dealt.
