Keep Walking

Just walk on by
Keep walking and she'll do the same
No acknowledgement, we won't lock eyes
What would we gain?
Memories of the the joy we cried?
Or recollection of a shared shame?
Just keep walking, walk on by
Nothing to gain, we could only collect pain
We would try to recall how happiness lied
We would remember our fame and a love feigned

She walks on by
Me and a stranger are the same
Remove my sight from the pavement I wouldn't try
Forgetting her shape, mind, face, and name
I let her pass me. Bye
