Chasing Ducks . . .


I found this friend in a 'Landslide'
Played Dixie Chicks yesterday
A land full of things I had never experienced 
A GLEE that lasted all day
A land of 'life worth living' 
And love worth finding out about
It filled my mind . . . insecurities?
The lowest of low, hard filled heart

It revealed my 'lot of mistakes'
It hurt my ORANGE ego,
I asked you why? in letters long
Hit SEND, then no reply 

I go . . . I stayed . . . 
I dreamt . . . I craved
I hugged away awkward times~
I look down at the tattoo upon my arm
'One Chance' - No 2nd . . . 1 try.

I watch it hit me like a pin
dart down my seamless side
My breath grew slow unknowingly
as you walked, never looked behind

I followed you in my thoughts
I knew the outcome . . . end?
A friend I had - once upon a time
SEALED: my heart till the end

As the clock turns down, the friend I want?
Is the friend to be my side
the one who's hand I never held
I yelled, I pinched your pride
Hours and hours on the telephone
I used to hate that tone
To talk to you is something different
Again . . . something I've never known.

I always had in the back of my mind
the time this story would tell
I just hoped it'd be a happy ending
but alone - I tried, I failed.

I can't help but miss my friend sometimes
the one I pushed away
I'm sad to see you - GREEN & go
but I'm glad we held a gaze

---------------
Thanking the one who became my favorite person. :)
