My friends have moved on
We grew up
Our loves took different paths
Looking back
Miss those youthful days
No obligations but living
All the risks we took
Staying up till the sun rose
The memories made
Till death we will carry them
I appreciate where life has taken me
It has brought me to here
To the now
My lessons are scars
Some visible on my body
Others hidden in heartbreak
Some further buried in my soul
To those who knew me
Knew me when I feared no Gods
To now, when I pray for my world
They know my darkness, potential and pain
Even when I didn’t
To those I call friends
I’m grateful for our time
I look at all the lonely people
Who missed out by not having any
Tragedy is never knowing friendship
Till we meet again
This life or the next
