Catch up

I'm running behind you to catch up

But like my dreams you fade

Your smile your laugh your gaze

Are now nothing but haze

You say you're lost but I'm right here

Why can't I get you to hear

My voice is lost in an ocean of pain

With my heart being nothing more than a stain

I run I kneel I crawl

My feet up against a wall

Pushing against a boundary that will never move

My fist bang but you can't hear the echo

My cry does not reach your heart

And I'm left standing

With nothing but a leftover goodbye.
