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
