#NationalPoetryMonth Day 25: It’s Been A While

My offering for Day 25 of National Poetry Month.

It’s Been A While…

 

We knew each other

once

I smile and say,

It’s been a while…

 

It’s a little awkward,

odd

to see you again

It’s been a while…

 

You always made me

smile

It’s good to talk to you

It’s been a while…

 

Do you remember

when

we used to dance so close?

It’s been a while…

 

Sometimes I miss

you

I miss being happy

It’s been a while…

 

I’m sorry that I

left

Why, I can’t recall

It’s been a while…
