Outstretched Thoughts

Outstretched Thoughts 

 it is a long time
since we spent time
and a longer time still
back to a time
when outstretched thoughts 
longed to feel,
i think of you most days 
and most days i think of those
who had the most to say 
in my life,
a life that could never have been known 
its own twists and turns
i think of those who spent time in my life
before i found that passion 
who back then, seemed so right 
who could save such a night
