This One’s for You

Perhaps it has been a while

But when I think of you

I still fondly smile

You are not guilty of breaking

Hearts or being mean

You are not that coward

Who fled the scene

You simply listened and laughed

As at length we talked

Our eyes remaining locked

Pine I do no more

On that chapter

I’ve closed the door

I do not wish to explain

All I’ve lost and stand to gain

I simply want to let you know:

This one’s for you,

Who made me smile

Even if it was just

For a little while
