In These Words

I write these words to be found, I miss that you are not around. I wonder if you are okay, That is what I wish to say. I just wanted you to know, The sun shall shine the light will show. That you never have to go it all alone, A house, does not make a home. I think about all I lost, I see the price, what it cost. I seem to do a little better today, It’s been some time since I lost my way. The sun warms up, it stills my mind, I try to leave the past behind. I just can’t go there anymore, What comes next I can’t be sure. The day lingers, the wind blows, The world still spins, the river flows. I find some peace inside myself, I pull my life off of the shelf. Life goes on and I still care, I look, but find no one there. Still I hope for something more, I gather the pieces up from the floor. I hope someday that we can talk, Side by side like we used to walk. Talk about how things now are, Then turn and wish upon a star.
