When you leave this place
An emptiness fills the space
In frenetic pace
I haven’t left yet
Don’t you see I’m still right here
Open your eyes, reach
Eyes clenched tightly still
Touch over sight, bending will
Draw me into you
Hold me close, tightly
Arms length won’t satisfy
Melt with me, won’t you?
A thaw would welcome
Any warmth that comes to me
From a friend so rare
A true friend you are
Thank you from arms that are far
I’ll keep reaching through
