Not Even

When you said nothing serious
You meant never again
You meant you might not even
Remember why my name

I understand we all suffer
Communications gaps
Break downs coming in the heat
And the fury of our laps

Honesty grows hollow when our
Words have different meanings
Especially while hearts beat race
And we fly like weightless beings

I felt you tearing free
Even as we flew together
I could see you smile at me but
I could feel your changing weather

I thought we wouldn't even
Remember now
Our names
