Lost in thought
Walking back on my way
Home from practice
No one to talk to today
Singing to myself
A quiet tune
Lights fading
It'll be dark soon
The horizon starts
To slowly catch fire
My arms are sore
My legs begin to tire
I hear someone call
A few feet behind me
"Blondie is that you?"
A small smile apears
That voice I knew
I turn around in a rush
"Cal? No way!"
I whisper excitedly
So much to say
A small embrace is exchanged
I can't believe how much he's changed!
Tall now and not nearly as frail
Lost touch over the years
Letters lost in the mail
His voice has gone deeper
Interesting to see how he's turned out
"Auna." He says his voice
Tinged with doubt
"Wow you've changed since last I saw.
Can't see your bones now!
And a little more tall."
I laugh at his childish grin
But he's right last time I was
Unhealthily thin
We catch up on everything
We missed over the time
Here of all places
An old friend I find
We recount our old memories
Spent in the hospital halls
Where we met
Never had a chance to call
Him after I came here
He's visiting family
That live so near
Sad the night had to end
But I knew it couldn't last
But I'm still smiling
Because of a voice from the past
