I WONDER WHAT STEPS SHE TOOK TODAY
Was I in her thoughts?
Was I in her way?
I wonder who she spoke to today
Did she speak of me?
If I had to guess I would have to say nay

The one that got away never left my brain pan
When it comes to memories, get what you can

I wonder who she is with nowadays
I don’t wonder who she isn’t
I hope they see her for who she is
and not look at her sideways like I did

I want her to be happy
But let’s not go overboard
Or slash at the past with a rusty sword

She would not remember me
If she saw me in a tree top stuck
I can’t stop thinking of her
Even while hit by a truck
