Lonely

It's been a while, 
It's taking too long
Instead of waxing away, 
It's getting too strong 

Memories are when I could still hold you 
But far away you are now
Broken is the inner most part,
Feelings becoming too ample to bear

Lonely is my note
Even when the pen is much around,
But of what use is the pen, 
When the ink is far away?

The moonlight keeps glowing 
The air keeps blowing 
The thoughts keep coming 
So does your smile keep haunting.
