I wish I could say how much I miss you,
pinpoint where our lives changed that day,
once so close and now miles apart,
yet not in distance but rather the heart.

Eyes once so familiar and now so unknown,
surrounded by crowds yet standing alone,
I've started a sentence a thousand times,
but find myself more silenced than a mime.

Do you miss the way things used to be?
the late night talks and lounging in trees
Am I alone in feeling regret?
replaying our highlights on an imaginary cassette.

Our friendship once so strong has now left me with pains,
I now see why they use names for hurricanes.
