Someday Soon

dedicated to my friend, Runny

i can only sit here and wonder
the walls of distance separating us

from words over mobile phones i can only guess
your feelings as you type those text messages

worry traps me within my insecurities;
the web of questions keep me from breathing

are you well?
if you're not, when will you be?

what's happening?
how can i help in any way?

i listen to happy music but my heart is sinking
i want to see you and give you a hug

i miss our long chats over bottles of vodka
the days where cutting hazed over our true intentions

i miss those times i could look over at you
marveling at just how intensely talented you are

things have changed but i'll still be around
perhaps one day, we could be happy again

Don't limit yourself by saying that you are mediocre writer! You have good skill, but need polish!! And desire to publish is quite normal! If some writers claim they don't have such desire then they lie!
