Longing Lisa

Processed with VSCO with c1 preset

You know, I miss you
Attached at the hip
It seems I’ve known you
since
Preschool
High school seems to be only a sequel
Same blood in our veins
We are of equal people
Related
But feelings lately have been so deflated
Use to be on time
now
everything’s belated
It’s putting
heavy hesitation on my concentration
Space turned into an emancipation
I thought you needed more patience
Yet, maybe I was wrong
Accepting each time
That
I was done wrong
Turned a new cheek
like
You rolled a new leaf
I had too much damage on that side
Crazy how
Our connection now
Is so apartheid
But somehow
my lifeline links to you
And maybe I didn’t do enough to listen
But my concerns of you
were
things of your dismissing
Even if that was never your true intention
I always wanted the best for you
That’s why I always encouraged you
to eat all of your vegetables
My friend
To better yourself
To shed the pounds of the things that weighed you down
in wealth
Because I cared
Even if my approach caused a glare
I did
Love you
Truly
like we were
school kids
