This is about the last time I saw an old friend of mine. It was written in 1997 right after she left, and I just felt that I wouldn't see her again.

I don't look into your eyes
Because I know.
You keep silent
Because you know.
It is the scene of life;
The ill fated ending
Of a movie.

I want to reach out and grab
This moment.
Pull us back to where we were
A few minutes earlier,
Happier-
Together-
Not seperated in mind
As we are now.

Yet this eternity continues
To control us.
This is not the way
It was written,
We are not
Supposed to end.

Still, we fade
Away from each other,
Neither of us speaking.
As we know,
This is all there is.

And then our eyes meet
For a brief moment,
Then we fade away forever.
That brief moment,
For all time in our memories,
As we are now
To each other.
