For My Princess Friend

A month has passed, and in that time,
I’ve missed you more with every rhyme.
Your silence echoed in my mind,
A void so deep, so hard to find.

I knew you weren’t feeling well,
But still, the days were hard to tell.
Without your words, without your care,
The world felt heavy, hard to bear.

You’re fair, tall, like the stars,
Yet in my heart, you heal the scars.
Your kindness, simple, pure, and true,
Is what I hold most dear of you.

I haven’t seen your face, it’s true,
But that doesn’t change my view.
You’re my friend, my only light,
Who makes the dark seem not so tight.

I imagine you in shades so warm,
A gentle breeze before the storm.
Not in beauty that others...
