True Friends


   (for my BFF)

The smile that captured me
and the easy laughter we shared
while creating wispy worlds
and planning pandemonium
or crafting chaos over coffee
being
   free

We've lost those days
to grown up worries
and family concerns
-- the balancing act
of being both lovers 
and parents at once
lost sometimes 
from one another
in our own worlds of 
   pain

I love you still
and I'm always here
I carry you in my heart
Your pain is mine
even when we're 
   apart

I only wish I knew
what words to say
or what to do
and for not being there
when you need me
I'm 
   sorry
