We Used To

For an old friend.

We used to dream

Once upon a time

We used to laugh

Sing and dance

We used to smile

Carefree and young

We used to whisper

Inconsequential things

We used to cry

Without shame or regret

We used to get angry

Get careless, get mad

We used to make up

Every time no matter what

We used to hide nothing

No lies to deny

We used to hold on

To our mothers, to each other

We used to lie

In the grass, in the rain

We used to watch

Observe and study

We used to be

Free, friends, forever
