TOO FAR FROM SHORE

It doesn’t feel the same
Not as it was before
You’ve drifted with the current
You’re too far from the shore. 

I can no longer reach you
I tried, but you were gone
Can’t get back to where we were
You waited way too long.

You didn’t try to hang on
You threw caution to the wind
Turned your back , sailed away
Won’t be back again. 

The loneliness consumes me
Feeling sorry for myself
Missing you, longing for
The love I thought you felt.
