From a Distance

Watching you from a far

I’m too shy to ask how you are

in case you don’t remember me

and I would end up having to flee.

The years have flown past

since the day I saw you last,

both of us were a lot younger

and able to tackle life with a hunger.

Now I am just left to reminisce

on all the chances that I missed.

It’s good to see you’re looking well

even from this distance I can tell.

Life seems to have been kind

where I have struggles with my mind.

Farewell then I must be on my way,

hopefully we’ll meet again one day.
