Where are my friends?

I get so few news from them

except my friend who is a boy

and father

Which is not to say he is not old

But we are all young deep down

I feel it tonight

very few people in my life

it is strange

and wonderous I suppose

I have two families

I am blessed

I am so blessed

that I just want to share

but so very few people

and yes, no one buying the books

I am far from perfection

but it lives in me 

like it lives in you too

so very much so without any friends tonight

I pray I am brave forever

and always make a vow to awaken

the only way to be truly 

alive
