Missing~
Ever notice how we are constantly running
from where we are
to where we’ve never been
only all too soon to crave the thirst of coming home
And while in passing
we meet the millions having abandoned those very places
we once called home,
themselves now filling the void we have just created
with our now departing
And it makes clear to me
Home is only home when first its abandoned for the unknown
It seems only after having being abandoned
does it truly become missing
It parallels many a friendship we once held dear
Having taken its station for granted
in chase of that brighter unknown star
Mesmerized by the lure of its seductive unspoken
promises of heavenly heights
All too soon, realizing all too late
all that glitter was nothing more than
dying lights,
having traveled beyond its reach
Too late, we’ve taken the bait
Sadly at times
friendships are only friendships when first abandoned for the unknown
It seems only after having being abandoned
do they truly become missing
Hug, kiss, embrace and appreciate a friend today.
