It's almost my birthday

I wish for nothing but to turn it away at the door

Another year is another year farther from you

Farther from my memories of you

Farther from your hand on my shoulder

Farther from your kind smile (to me)

Farther from your enveloping laugh

Sweet as a melody and as comforting as a hug

This distance is too much

I cannot be this apart

If I can't have you

Why can't I just hold the idea of you dearly?
