• Reaching Out

    You were my support beam.
    The one that kept me still.
    I never felt like falling over.
    You were a good support beam.
    But soon enough we had to go.
    Separate into our new worlds.
    My life has been changed forever.
    And I fell.
    I reached out,
    But you weren’t there to catch me.
    You were too far.
    I reached out.
    And nobody caught me.
    I was so alone.
    I sobbed when no one looked.
    I felt so much pain,
    Too much to describe.
    I tried to hold on to you.
    I tried to reach out.
    But you were too far.
    Too far for comfort.
    And now I fall.
    I have no one to whisper to,
    Pass notes too,
    Tell my sorrow too,
    And tell my secrets too.
    I reached out.
    But you weren’t there.
    I reached out,
    And caught no one else.
