Have you stopped recently?
And looked deep inside,
Have you even realized?
That my happiness has died.
I know that you have seen
You know my every glance,
You also know my heart was screaming
That Friday at the dance.
I longed to be close to you
A need to touch your hand,
A need to be next to you
A need you understand.
I try to keep my distance
I try to step away,
It’s hard when I need you so
Each and every day.
But I had my moment
My moment to smile,
When you touched my shoulder
I hadn’t felt that in a while.
I do understand the distance
That we have to keep,
But sadness still fills me up
Sometimes my heart must weep.
But I try to keep my head up
Try not to let you see,
But I know that’s not possible
For you truly do know me.
So what’s the point of this poem?
What am I trying to say?
I guess nothing any different
Than any other day.
Or maybe there is a difference
Maybe I’m just trying to reach out,
Or maybe it’s all the confusion
And a heart full of doubt.
So I will end this by saying
I truly know you are my friend,
I know you are close to my heart
From now---- until the end…..
