A man from 25 years ago,
he said I was always the looker
and a blind man would fall for me.

Old high school friends make you smile.

I wonder why it took 25 years for him to fall.
Now that I'm old and getting gray.
At my peak, so to say.

I haven't changed a bit.
Well he's a liar.
And I smile at that.

Passing shadows,

Nice one.  I never attend those reunion things--shun them like the plague.  I don’t wanna remember none of that.

There's nothing wrong with a liar though.  He might be a poet.

I'd say the "fall" probably happened 25 years ago...it just took that long for the breeze it caused to make it past the rest of the trees...

Close your eyes and "feel" it, my dear friend.
