Gone For Too Long

Distancing away, out of body experience
 Mirrors reflection but with connection
 Feelings, emotions seen from a side
 But all is still present, still inside
 Overpowering sense of loss
 Of something familiar but too strange
 Present, future, past all in one tense
 All but the peace, all but the calm
 All is around but the most important
 Most important is missing,
 Gone,
 Gone for too long to be desired
 To actually remember how it feels
 But something still craves,
 Something still familiar
 But too old and gone for too long
