Call to me just like you used to.
Hearing your voice would take me back to…
Days I thought were long gone.
But maybe I might be wrong.
What I’d give for that to be true.
All so I could spend another few hours with you.
Do you recall all those nights we shared?
Even then it was clear we both cared,
More than we wished to admit.
Side by side we did sit.
Chatting as we cried from joy.
You were just a girl in the company of me, a boy.
That was then and this is now.
Time travel is not a thing somehow.
I wish it was cause I miss it so.
Hurt real bad when you had to go.
Never did quite get through.
Instead I’ve always hoped I’d get back to you.
Silly dreams from way back when.
Hope your life has been a perfect thing.
I write these words but still don’t know,
If I would recognise you.
Its been so long since I saw you last.
Life seems to be accelerating oh so fast.
Soon another decade will be done.
Don’t know where all that time has gone.
