Often, as I lie awake
Silent in the stillness of night
I think of you
And I ponder how
Through the gift of reacquaintance
Our lives entwined and unravelled
Priorities widened and waned
Worlds synced and separated
My mind revisits
Every late night, spent close in connection
Every challenge confronted
Every emotion uncovered
Every depth of feeling shared
And now, here lies a superficial shroud
In darkness and depression
And an emptiness echoes between
The souls of strangers
