Another Ex

She was my longest love in many ways,
With us so often on, or off, again;
She was a part of each divergent phase
Of all the things I tried to, could've been

She called me once in quite a fevered state;
Her voice its magic worked on me in tolls;
I drove six hours - then we made love eight -
A fire burning on in glowing coals

But something about us just was not right.
The chemistry was there, and we could talk:
But our values were different, so in spite
Of all the good we had, I chose to walk.

We have stayed friends, and lately I can tell:
I'm just another ex to her, as well
