A letter to an old friend

I came by to visit you old friend,
I knocked several times upon your door.
But, I guess you were not home to answer,
Do you even call this home anymore?

I know it had been somtime,
Since I last walked your way.
But I have missed your company,
I was thinking of times of yesterday.

I am sorry I missed you this time, old friend,
Never had I done so before.
Everytime I ever knocked,
You were sure to answer your door.

I must say this old road looks the same as ever,
But there is something different about this old place.
The feeling that was once here is gone.
The warmth, of it ever being here, there is no trace.

Well, old friend I fear,
This letter you will never see.
And if it be true that you are never to return,
Your memory here, will always be.
