To My Lost Friend

It's not that I dont miss it all
Just that I wont give myself a chance to
I occupy myself with other things
So that my mind cant focus on you
 
It's not that I never loved you
Just that I dont think of it now
I block all those emotions
Any way I know how

And when I look at you in pictures
And read your letters you wrote to me
I'm saddened by our distance; I think
We were supposedly "meant to be"

I wonder what you're thinking now
If I'm still in your every prayer
If when I'm turned away, you'll look at me
Just because you care

Do you cry for me often?
Because I'll always cry for you
Just because you'll always be
The greatest guy I knew
