A Simple Text, a Phone Call, a Letter

To reach out to you would be so easy,
A simple text, a phone call, a letter even.
“How are you?”, but I know that wouldn’t do.
It’s been too long, too much water under the bridge.

So I’ll just sit here and miss you instead,
Relive the memories we made, the good times we shed,
The laughs we shared, the tears we cried.
I’ll hold onto those moments forever, inside.

I know that you’re out there somewhere,
Living your life, making new memories,
But I can’t help but wonder if you ever think of me.
Do you ever miss me the way I miss you?

I’ll never know the answer to that question,
But I’ll continue to hold onto the hope that one day,
We’ll find our way back to each other,
And pick up where we left off, like no time has passed.

Until then, I’ll just keep missing you,
And hope that you’re doing well.

Etched Upon My Heart 

Large tree with extensive sprawling roots in a green forest at sunrise

Etched Upon My Heart

The world was wide and waiting
The day you took your start,
And every step you’ve taken since
Is etched upon my heart.

I’ve watched the boy of wonder
Turn to a man of grace,
With courage in your steady hands
And kindness in your face.

It isn’t just the things you’ve done,
The trophies on the shelf,
But the quiet way you choose to act
When you are just yourself.

Through every doubt and shadow,
Through every climb and fall,
You’ve found the strength to stand back up—
The greatest feat of all.

I look at you and see the best
Of everything I know,
And feel a pride so deep and vast
It has no place to go.

So keep your eyes upon the sun,
Keep honest, brave, and true;
There is no greater joy I own
Than simply knowing you.
