Just You

She's pretty,
Pale and slight,
Pleasant voice,
Seems quite nice.
Silvery laugh,
Lively eyes,
Sweet in nature,
So hard to despise.
But where are you?
Where have you gone?
I searched for you,
But it's been too long.
The eyes once soft
Now hollow to me.
A smile once bright
Gone...completely.
It doesn't really matter
If you love me or not.
I just miss you,
Not what she's got.
I loved you, my friend
As just that at first.
A friend and companion
Through the best and the worst.
So throw your head back
Laugh as you did.
Give me the love I crave,
The love of a friend.
