Its been a while old friend Our conversations few and far between Ive been taking each day slowly Learning all I can of me I cannot tell you how I missed you Youve always been the great escape But life keeps tossing me lemons It just keeps filling my plate I cant seem to free a hand No time to hold a pen I realize your empty without me I just forgot to fill you in I must admit im learning I can gather thoughts on my own I still could never thank you enough For all the guidance you have shown When we embrace I have direction Everything seems to fall in line I can reach the furthest places Darkest corners of my mind Somethings in life belong together Its a lesson that im learning And all this time apart Has left my writers hand yearning As it caresses your face now I know im probably moving way to fast But the past few months have taught me True joy is ever fleeting It just doesnt seem to last So I find myself rushing to embrace you Writing earnestly Taking your blank pages And filling them of me
