Nice to See You Again.

It's been a long time.

You still look good.

The house is still the same.

The carpet still has that one juice stain

And the picture frame still tilts at that weird angle

 

I feel old.

But i'm really just a part of the stupid youth

Looking for something that is never found.

How have you been?

I really did miss you.

I just had some growing up to do.

 

The night is young

But I'll sleep it's loneliness away

Because tomorrow will really only be just another day

Although for the first time in a while

You'll be here so i'll wake with a smile.
