Where?

Why do you seem so distant?
To talk to us, you seem hesitant.
Was it something we did?
Or was it something we said?
Probably, it was something we didn’t do,
Maybe something we said that wasn’t true.
Maybe we weren’t there when you needed us,
Maybe we created too much of a fuss.
Was it the others or was it me?
Without you, it’s hard to call us “We”.
Where is that man with the hilarious jokes?
Who could entertain these ever depressed folks?
Where is that boy who rode like the wind?
Where is that boy who always grinned?
Where is that friend who lifted us when we fall?
I wonder where is the friend, his message or his call.
Where is that boy who loved to have fun?
Be it in the cold of the moon or the heat of the sun?
Where is that boy who loved to hang out?
That boy who won every arm wrestling bout?
There are so many maybes and where’s,
I don’t even know how he fares.
I hope to hear from my friend,
In person, phone or a message which he will send.
