I thought I saw you yesterday, but I didn’t stop, cause you was walkin’ the opposite way. I guess I could’ve shouted out your name, but even if it was you, I don’t know what I would say. We could sit and reminisce about the old school maaybe share a cigarette, because we both fools. Chop it up and compare perspectives life, love, stress, and set-backs. So you could tell me how hard you had it and you could show me all the scars to back it. And we could analyze each complaint break it down and explain these mistakes I make, but you knew me back when I was a younger me. You seen Levi in all types of light and I’ve been meaning to ask you if I’m doing alright. Yesterday, was that you? Looked just like you strange things my imagination might do take a breath, reflect on what we been through. Or am I just going crazy ‘cause I miss you? I’ve hit a couple snags that remind me of the past I can’t front, I’m having a blast, but damned if I ain’t afraid of how long it’s gonna last. Sitting here wishing we could kick it. Give me your opinions, I do miss the criticisms. I didn’t mean to be distant, make a visit. I’ll wait up and keep the coffee brewin’ in the kitchen. But who am I jokin’ with? There’s no way that you and I will ever get to re-open it it doesn’t matter, this is more than love and maybe if I’m lucky, get to see you out the corner of. And when you left, I didn’t see it coming. I guess I slept, it ain’t like you was running. You crept out the front door slow and I was so self-absorbed I didn’t even know. Andd by the time I looked up it was booked up. Put it all behind you, the bad and the good stuff a whole house full of dreams and steps. I think you’d be impressed with the pieces I kept you disappeared but the history is still here. It’s why I try not to cry over spilt beer I can’t even get mad that you’re gone. Leaving me was probably the best thing you ever taught me….I’m sorry, it’s official I was a fist-full, I didn’t keep it simple chip on the shoulder, anger in my veins. Had so much hatred, now it brings me shame. Never thought about the world without you, and I promise that I’ll never say another bad word about you. I thought I saw you yesterday, but I knew it wasn’t you, ‘cause you passed away, papa. Looked just like you. Strange things my imagination might do take a breath, reflect on what we been through or am I just going crazy ‘cause I miss you?
