From strangers to friends

Growing fondness she pretends

she hides.

His last gift of silence,

he claimed his absence

she teared.

With words left unspoken

Said promises half broken

she left.

Nothing can change the now

For she didn't even ask how

she accepts.

Hush she whispered. Hush.

Keep it this way there's no rush.

she smiles.

Always she remembers. Always she said.

Always.
