July

It's hard looking back 
and I'll never know 
What was the truth or a lie 
Who knew time was this slow 

I miss seeing your smile 
I miss touching your face 
But everything is different 
You're in a new place  

The tears start to fall 
They splash on my dress 
I try so hard to keep it together 
But I am simply a mess. 

I said it once 
and I'll say it again 
I miss you my dear
I miss you my friend.
