She hath wings

Staring at a photograph,
Wishing I was there-
Chatting to you,
Laughing, reminiscing-
You came back,
After so many years
And so many tears;
You’ll never know
How I shut down-
How I lost faith
In friendship itself-
Then I let go,
And opened up-
Prayed for you often;
Never imagined,
That I would
Find you again-
Do you miss me?
I don’t know-
But I wish I was there.
