Sometimes I wonder,
How did we fall in love?
You and I
So different
Yet so dangerously alike
And that’s the funny part
I wanted to talk
And you wanted to be
But you could never be
And I could never talk
And the silences turned into distances
And distances
Into a void.
And here we are
Chatting like old friends
About films, and people and art
About what places to eat at,
Where to shop
But never ‘really’ talking
Of things that matter
Between us.
Never really ‘being’
Together.
Sometimes,
I really wonder
How ‘did’ we fall in love?
You and I?
