I try
not to cry
I try
not to choke
But the feelings I feel
are no simple joke
Thoughts of you
set my heart racing
The sound of your voice
gets me pacing
The time seems so short
The distance not too far
But my heart doesn’t know that
A breath away from me
is still not near enough
I try
not to cry
When I think
Of how long it’s been
I try
Not to sink
Into the deep end of missing you
But a day away from you
Is like a day without a part of me
Time passes so slowly
when we’re apart you see
One of life’s unsolved mysteries
You’re There
and I’m Here
I try,
Not to cry
Try,
Not to miss you
Not too much.
