Missing Your Potential

Washed up thoughts and dried up habits Still wanting to reach out and grab it You thought those dark roads were lit Your mind just wasn’t equipped To handle the absence of it all The stumble, the trip, the fall Nobody was there to catch you For that I apologize, I miss you Forever is too long for my mind To accept you being gone this time You left an indelible mark on me Too bad you didn’t make it to see Life outside a seemingly never ending rut Chasing the thought used to drive us nuts Now I sit back remembering all those times With you it would have been great to make that climb Now all I can do is remember you through a rhyme
