Adieu

Oh beautiful friend, where are you?
I need you and you don't have a clue.
Without you I can no longer fly,
come back so I can soar above the sky,
You cause me to dream, now I’m so blue. 

But you're gone, what am I supposed to do?
You are the main ingredient of my stew,
And cause sadness to say goodbye
Above all you brought hope.

Oh my imagination, I don't want to bid adieu, 
You infuse and indwell only a selected few.
Now that you're gone I just sulk and sigh,
You were soothing, you didn't force nor pry,
Above all you brought hope.

Sad, yet beautifully versed poem, Alexis. But, fret not ... young hearts always run free. Love is your destiny. Lovely poem, my dear friend. Love and smiles always.
