Where have you gone?
How did I lose you?
You were my friend,
My companion.
Maybe one of the best anyone could wish for,
With your childlike simplicity,
The childhood bonds of friendship
That held us together.
How did they break?
Did I really allow distance
To separate us?
When, in today's world,
You would only be a phone call away,
Only a text, an email.
And maybe, just maybe,
This new tech world
Will help me find you again.
But technology cannot make up
For all those lost years.
So many times we missed,
And all along,
We had never imagined being without each other.
No, we never thought that far.
I thought I would always be there,
And that you would, too.
Never did I know that I would leave.
If I had, would things have changed?
I wouldn't have taken anything,
Any moment with you,
For granted.
But then again, I was little
And so were you,
So I wouldn't have felt the impact
Of our separation
Then,
As I do today,
I wish I had tried harder
To keep you here with me.
But I didn't.
And I regret it.
And now you have left me.
And I you.
Where have you gone?
