You say you want to be just friends,
But do you mean goodbye?
Is that the easy way to end
The wish without the why?
You owe me nothing, as I owe
You equally, and yet
There\'s something in the undertow
I cannot just forget.
There\'s something lovely like a song
That\'s waiting to be heard,
Or like the feelings that belong
To some unspoken word.
And so with you I cannot simply
Smile and without proof.
I take the risk of asking plainly
For the untold truth.
