Just the Boy on the Swing
JUST THE BOY ON THE SWING
He saw the gurls around him
Chose one
Listened once
Talked twice
The gurl never
Paid much attention
But he loved
Without needing more
Every day I passed him
Nothing changed
Nothing varied
It was just the boy on the swing
Again and again
He would wave
He would smile
It was just the boy on the swing
I didn't care
And night came
When the end came
When friends parted
And love is given a last chance
He came
I refused
Music consumed the air
But I was deaf to it
I only listened
To the whispers of a creaking swing
I hadn't known him
Had I?
I never noticed
The way he smiled
The way he talked
