I miss you…<\/p>\n

     I know…<\/p>\n

Why did you leave so early?<\/p>\n

     I didn’t. I left right
\n     when I was intended to.<\/p>\n

I still needed you.
\nStill need you.<\/p>\n

     I am not far.
\n     I will not ever be far.<\/p>\n

Deep down I know that.<\/p>\n

     Good it’s the truth.
\n     I will always be with you.<\/p>\n

How do I communicate
\nwith you?<\/p>\n

     You know the answers
\n     to all the questions.
\n     You know more than you
\n     think you do.<\/p>\n

Do I?<\/p>\n

     Yes, you have
\n     always known.
\n     You just needed
\n     encouragement.<\/p>\n

I suppose that
\nis true.
\nI still miss
\nour talks.<\/p>\n

     I miss them too.
\n     We are talking now.<\/p>\n

In a manner of
\nspeaking I guess.
\nI better go for now.
\nI am sure we will
\ntalk again soon.<\/p>\n

     I hope so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
