Somewhere else.

The thing that brings you joy.
Also brings you pain.

You want them close.
To hold them dear.
But they're so far away.
And never to come near.

You want to see them.
Hear them.
Talk to them.
Watch them once again.

But they're so far away.
It's like a far-off dream.

You support them.
Like a mother watching a child.
With a heart filled with pride.
When something good happens.

But your heart turns bitter.
When you're reminded once again.
They're somewhere else.
And not here...
