I Miss Someone I Never Met

Words are all I have to touch you deep inside,
The miles and vast distance prevent the touch I wish to give you but forever hide,

I died a little when you went away, just left with writing words which seem to be slowly fading away,
Words are all I have, along with many demons left to slay,

I write from my heart and care for your soul,
Words are all I have, with you I no longer share or have a role,

I am a sentimental fool who still thinks of your kind voice and lovely smile,
Words are all I have with memories on file, remembering the times when you made my life worthwhile,

Memories ingrained and typed within my brain,
Words are all I have to take away our hurt and each other's pain,

Why we left and drifted so easily apart,
Words are all I have now, left with only pieces of your heart,

I often think of you and wonder what moves you anymore,
Words are all I have to comfort you, the one who I still adore,

Time moves so fast and is incredibly unforgiving to those who truly feel,
Words are all I have to give you, to pull you back and maybe try to heal,

From deep down I always write, simple words as I listen to the rain pour, the unforgiving rain outside,
Words are all I have to touch you now, to give meaning to your inner core, to help you feel again inside,

The road to tomorrow is unknown and full of hope and dreams,
Words are all I have left to fight reality with steam,

But alas, I float back and drift within my mind,
I am now left with just words to think about the girl from another place and another time,

The lady who I once thought I touched and was supposed to walk with together straight down the line,
Words still have meaning but the reality I am left with is still so very unkind...
