Strange and Distant

by Bernie McCann

Turning in the silence
to see the remains of the day
vanish in the dusk

You were here once
You remember
things we wouldn't say to each other

Replaced by superficial words of support
and promises of days,
months,
and years,
always facing forward

I see you on the street now
you don't even wave
instead your face is strange and distant

I feel the miles inside...
