Thinking of You

As I sat down today,
With my mind at ease
I felt myself drift off into a peaceful solitude.
The busy noises of a world at work
Were slowly dimmed by a thick lethargic haze that pervaded my soul.
I felt calm.
I felt tranquil.
My thoughts glided easily along this thick haze,
Gently seeking their own way through.
With the thick blanket of clouds parting
to make a pathway for my thoughts.
I saw this and followed it to see what lay ahead of me.
A slow smile appeared on my lips and a light laugh tickled my throat
As I saw what was before me.
My thoughts had led me back.
This very same solitude,
This very same haze had led my thoughts here,
Countless times before
I was in this position before.
It is where I am supposed to be.
It is where I need to be.
It is here…
I need to be here thinking of you
I will always be thinking of you
No matter where I am or what I do
That peaceful solitude will always find me
And that slow and steady haze will always guide my thoughts back to you
You became the friend I always needed
Wherever the road of life may choose to direct me,
it will always bring me back to you.
My dreams and aspirations of days long ago
have always been to reach high and far in life.
And whether it be that my goals are achieved,
diverted, or even failed at,
you will always be with me
My soul is cradled within your comforting arms
The beating of my heart only follows
the rhythm of your heart
And a special place within my mind
is dedicated solely to you
Even though you have shut me out of your life
Know that no matter what you do to me,
I will always think of you…
Care for you…
Love you…
Remember that you are my friend and always will be
Though you may turn away from me forever
You’ll always have a place in my heart
A place where you can feel cared for, wanted,
and safe from all the toils and hardships of the world
Because no matter how vast the distance between us grows
There will always be that quiet solitude
Those thick, slow moving clouds
And that simple, direct path
that leads my thoughts back here…
thinking of you.
