A poem I wrote a year ago

"Gone"
The night has been so wrong
It felt so right for one good song
And as the melody played on
I think of happy days long gone
What was it like, under the light?
If there we stayed, is it alright?
Nobody said a word that night
We all just faded out of sight
Sealed in silence, wired in prayers
We made a vow never to part ways
I used to cling tightly to “Always”
But now it stops after the long chase
One step forward creates the past
Plain and simple, nothing lasts
when moments pass, they turn to dust
At times I pray the longing stops

@dudibelles - thats why I asked, are you still missing them? It seems so, thats the great thing about poetry it never changes the mood.

@Inlemay I still do. We haven't been together in years. We only stay connected online. We get updates but that's all. Yes, it's like you can always lock emotions in poetry and make it last through time :)
