~~As Time Goes By~~

We grow up slowly

Trying hard to learn

Living and getting older

Slowly growing colder

Everything drifts away

We close ourselves off

As time goes by

The screams grow quiet

Everything changes and nothing stays the same

Nothing can remain

Friends forever walk away

And are eventually forgotten

Love waxes and wanes

And things begin to rearrange

I loved you

And I still remember you

But now can you please

Just close yourself off?

So I don't hurt you?

So long has passed since

We last spoke

I wish I could have said goodbye

But our time went by
