Lost Friends

Words set to music
they ring through the air
listen real closely
before they disappear

Pen them to paper 
they bleed all I'm worth
from stars in the distance
to the beauty on Earth

Heed my attention
dear friends that have flown
whispered past secrets
oh where have you gone

Nice concept of missing those we care about. I love Jan's comment about not missing others so much. I'll not be missed but who gives a fig.

Some friends stay, while others leave. Moments and memories will always be. Your thoughts touch my heart. ~ Brandy

Tim.. I love this deep, philosophical, melancholy write. And I can relate to it easily.

Aww Tim there are many who are no longer here some we miss greatly like Darren others not so much. I do try and soup mail if I see someone is not around, sometimes I get a response but that is quite rare:-( Have a lovely weekend:-) hugs jan xx
