I do not want to talk of him,
His shining eyes, his wicked smile.
I do not want to think of him,
The way we laughed and loved a while.
I do not want to meet with you,
Pretending it is all the same.
I do not want to hear of him,
I’m trying to forget his name.
I do not want to cry with you,
I have not cried with him all year.
I do not want to say goodbye,
To someone I once held so dear.
