As we're strolling down the path
I embark on different routes
Yet you're plodding through the grass
Trailing after me in loops
Never noting the discrepancies
That force us from the truth
Though I'm far from being selfless,
I can't stand the harm to you
Fessing up is not facile
It takes courage to confess
Unsaid words have grown and piled
Unfeigned actions growing less
There's a dearth of heartfelt banter
We possessed a while back
In the present day we've lossed it
Now we're oddly diffident
