liar

they don't laugh the way you
used to
i can't find that fire
in their eyes that dampens
when i cry
they don't smile the way you did
make me melt into myself

i don't dream the way i used to
fear wrapped 'round wishes
wrapped 'round kisses
wrapped 'round you
there is no shield no shelter
no need for tough skin anymore

i can't find what i found in you
in you or in them or in me
and if we reach out and touch i know we could
pretend
but friend, love is never a lie
and we stopped telling the truth
long ago.
