Where Have You Been

Another one about an old friend and confidant that is no longer in my life.

It's been half a decade, maybe more

Since I last found you at my door

Gone so long, off to a distant shore

Away so long, so far from my core

Curious as to why now you call

Something I missed, a distant hall

I hope at least you gave it your all

Kept things together, never a fall

So where have you been all these years

What has life brought you; joy or tears

Living it mostly abroad, without fears

Reflections on life like a room full of mirrors

Is a rebirth, a beginning of an end

For heart and will they will not bend

Messages left empty, unable to send

For have time for me again my friend

So tell me all the things I do not know

Show me things you want to show

We can take things easy, in slow-mo

Moving like water, wherever we flow
