I know why… do you?
I know why you text me in spurts
something casual that only I
will understand
It’s not random
It’s not boredom
I know why you know me still.
I know why you write down jokes
and then re-write them
before you tell them to me
It’s not banter
It’s not laughter
I know why you call me still.
I know why… do you?
I know why you picked her
over me and I know when you see me
You fantasize
It’s not slight
Its not right
But its what we do
I’ll always let you
I know why you know me still.
I know why… do you?
I know that I should let you go
I know that I can’t ever win
Can’t be more than friends
It’s not lust
It’s not trust
I know, I know, I know…
I’m stupid… like you
It’ll be our forever secret
That I love you too
