maybe it was easy once

maybe it was easy once
pretending I didn’t matter
ignoring all the signs
all the signals thrown your way
maybe it was easy once
dismissing the longing
that warmed the chill of your heart
each moment with me
maybe it was easy once
smiling without feeling
hiding yourself from the truth
nothing’s easy now

Sometimes I like the smell of the rain, the chill in the air, the gray of the sky…

While on the road
