Distant Friend

I caught you spying on me.
It was quite obvious to see you outside of my window.
Spoken to like a out-of-touch friend,
I merely say that I miss spending time together.
In all actuality, I would rather slumber.
"We should hang out soon," I say.
And, you wait.
Outside like a neighbor boy loitering on the front porch.
I step out for a few minutes and don't acknowledge you.
Your sadness makes you cloud up and cry millions of tears.
Your tears make me angry and depressed.
"Why can't you be a little more sunny?"
You only cry more over my disappointment.
When you do cheer up, I am occupied with dreams,
And only start to wake when you set to sleep.
My disappointment is in myself,
because I want to be close when you're here.
You're going places.
I'm going nowhere.
Maybe you'll pass over this way tomorrow.
I sure hope so.
My day will be much brighter and fun.
Because life is too dark without you: the sun.

shalom.
