Lost love
You look away whenever you see her face
And i wonder what you are trying to evade
Maybe a distant memory of a smile
That you still cannot help but admire
You shut your ears whenever you hear her voice
And i wonder why
Was it that song she was humming while she was passing by?
Or maybe it's a fleeting image you are trying to eradicate
Or a plethora of nostalgic thoughts you aren't ready to tolerate.
