If you were here
 reminiscent of the old days
 when time and energy seemed unimportant,
I could make a memory
 an unforgettable encounter of chance
 filled with intent and purpose;
the instant of meeting you
 the corner on friendship unplanned
 it's unraveling into unintended love;
If you were here
 we could pretend together
 gathering the dream of future days and years;
but you're not here
 not any more
 and I alone missing you
wishing you were here
 beside me on this lonely path
 wanting of time and love and memory
just a little more.
