Whatever Happened to Us?
Another evening
in usual style,
You hardly speak
now, and I seldom smile,
I sit here wondering
all of the while
Whatever happened
to us?
I can't recall when
love started to wane---
No major crisis,
deception or pain---
Which makes it
so very hard to explain
Whatever happened
to us.
We began as intelligent
lovers,
We'd always mean
what we say---
But maybe intelligent
lovers
All wind up this
way.
Sometimes I long
to reach out for your hand
And ask what happened
to all that we planned,
To simply tell
you I don't understand
Whatever happened
to us.
