Drift

The nights, the traveled shared
The souvenir of you, in a distant past made us closer
The creative spring, brought us closer

Just like a brother
I never feared the threat of time
And I never guessed
That we would drift so far apart
Your support, your presence, your ear
Through some of our darkest times

Why didn't you reach me
When the burden of your sorrow was weighting you down?

I neglected the alert
Given by your gentle retreat
How could I have slowed you down?

When the events were only disguised under an excuse for a life
Becoming over busy it seemed so natural
No reason to look for an under lying ground

Why didn't you reach me
When you couldn't bare the discomfort, the lasting lightless thoughts?

Your everyday might not be what your heart screams for
Did you sacrifice your dreams for others wellness?

Just like a brother
I never feared the threat of time
And I never guessed
That we would drift so far apart

I can't conceive you point at me as a threat
I would be an obstruction in your pursuit of happiness
I would? I would?

Around my modest table
An empty chair, waiting for you
I will remain patient
I will keep waiting, keep waiting
