Lines
Not enough time for goodbye.
Since the world is calling you
Off to places without me.
It's as if your out stretched hand
Is nothing more than vapors
Rising from uncaring stone.
I know you are close to me,
But the distance is growing
Just like the thunder above.
As I watch; you're shrinking back
From all the things you won't know
And all the people you'll leave.
Mine is a different pain.
More along the lines of this:
Never saying what you mean,
Hiding from uncertainties,
And above all not saying
how you're leaving will break me.
We're standing on cracking glass,
But I'm too scared to move now
Since you won't be there to help.
How can your life continue
While mine starts crumbling down?
I ache for your happiness.
I'm jealous of your glory.
Since I'm not sure I'll get there
Without losing hart and mind.
Promise this won't be the end,
Because if we make the vow
I'll feel obliged to keep it.
I want to run to you and
Tell you how much you'll be missed
By your unsure and scared friend.
The friend who won't push feelings
For fear of the changes they'll bring...
