We

You came by and touch me
Naive and selfish was I
Played along to have some fun
Played well to feel the joy.
I was brave
You were bored
Teens,
We were never sure.
Delightful it was,
Your every message
Lighting up the lips
Your every word
Was is hard?
It was for me
Will it be hard?
The world will soon know
Have asked
“Who are you?”
With every passing time
You remained you.
Played well, yes.
Players, we both are.
This was a game
I didn’t want to play.
Birthday’s remembered,
farewell’s forgotton.
Poor it was,
Rich it will be.
I will be there,
So will you.
Keeping hope
Believing, we always do.
