Christmas, A Season That Stirs Old Memories..

We’re Still Friends, Right?

We’re still friends, right?

Even though I see your name

And feel the echo of the flame,

The one we let go out that night—

We’re still friends, right?

When I see your smile online,

A life that no longer touches mine,

I wonder if you think I might

Still care. We’re still friends, right?

The boy who loved you still remains,

Though time has dulled the sharper pains.

I hope, in dreams or stars alight,

You’ll whisper: We’re still friends, right?
