Dear old friend,

I hope that you are well.

Its been awhile since we have spoke,

As you probably can tell. 

I see your pictures,

And I see how you’ve grown.

I remember our times together,

The shared happiness we once shown.

While I wonder how you are,

And how we somehow lost touch.

I don’t seek to know the answer,

For to know would hurt too much.

Instead I choose to watch us falling,

And dare not ask how we fell.

I think its better this way,

And perhaps you can tell --

But, my dear old friend,

I hope that you are well.
