Family away from home

For my very few but truly precious friends......

You've known me
As I was and as I wanted to be
My hopes, my dreams
All of my fond memories
You were my family away from home
My brother, my sister, my pillar
Countless laughs we have shared
And tears we have spent
All our fears we shared
And all those plans we had and all those that were undone.
And although we don't talk every day
Every hour any more.
And you are no longer the first person I turn to
When I am scared or happy or sad.
You are always there whenever I really need to count on someone
You are there when I need to be grounded
You are still there in all my memories
In the way I was and the way I want to be.

The high road is lonely, cruel and harsh up on a pedestal, expectation abound the path less taken for sure. the divine light is at the end they said. but honestly, can't even see it any more.

Doubt

  H ave you ever had this feeling in your heart A feeling there was something missing, M issing a part A feeling in your soul T hat you weren't quite so whole. F eel so heavy Bursting at the sea ms S till so empty there's nothing left to give H ave you ever had that feeling L ike you're not quite there I n a room full of people But the noise disappears Inside you that one voice is so loud But you aren't quite sure what it's going on about. Tossing and turning in my bed So fixated yet unaware Thoughts abundant So unclear Within me, every day everywhere.
