Left Behind
You stood still
while away I had to fly
yet our friendship will
always abide.
You are still there
stuck in the past
and I know where
my future is cast.
Into a world
of people with hope
their lives unfurled
freed from all dope.
As you stay in the past
I will pray each day
our friendship will outlast
your darkness and gray.
And, I want you to know
as I live in the light
you too can grow
away from your plight.
And join me again
in a friendship aglow
for as always then
I will love you so.
