Lonely Than Ever Tracy

Dear Tracy, I never expected you to go Not even anticipated your leaving I am disturbed by my lonesomeness Wishing you as a true friend Were near I never thought to write letters We just lived for a tomorrow Not ever even telephoning Popping in was okay I never expected to hear your voice through wires Never knew those plans were futile Never thought we would weaken Our heart of love Never dreamt we would be season’s apart Never did we dream of a yesterday Nor licked memories bare We never bargained for this We never dwelt on reflections My loneliness is obvious I weep as I write For hurt I was When life turned sour And bitter became I When I knew The power of love Hate Dejection Loneliness Memories Aimlessness Pent-up frustration. If only memos kept! Forever, Comfort.

This is sad and stil it trancends the paper. Such a friendship can be maintained over decades and distance. I do not believe it will be lost, perhaps delayed but not lost.
