Passages

For an instant
Our eyes met today
I saw a faint smile
Before you turned away

We used to be friends
It seems so long ago,
But we must keep it a secret
No one can ever know

Now we practice avoiding each other
No more do I hear your voice
Both of us unhappy,
Both victims of free choice

I can still see your face
From earlier today
I saw you smile
Then, turn away
