a roadside conversation (in darkness)

the most interesting 
roadside conversation
I've shared in forever
though I must admit, after it, 
I was left wishing you never
called out my name
and said those things to me
cos as we parted ways
my soul felt so heavy
yeah maybe I wasn't ready
for you to speak truth
for you to see me this way
for me to see you that way
after so many years
years, so many tears (as in rips) 
so many years, 
often tear---------
 some apart
and bring others together
I really wish I never
heard you
say my name
maybe then I could remain
