There're some things that never change

   Some things that do

   Some things that stay the same

      Between me and you

Like how your hair parts towards the left

   While our grins grows wide

   Eyes alighting in the dark

      When we're side-by-side

Light banter over candle flames

   Evenings of joyful smiles

   How your hands feel rough on mine

      When I say, "Stay a while"

But time flies and seasons change

   We snatch at fleeting moments

   Our conversations grow short and curt

      The cold sheets an ill omen

And suddenly I find myself

   Alone in the space we shared

Asking myself what went so wrong

   When both of us still cared
