    I Only Clasped the Air
           [by Dr.Who3]

My friend was near.
We could have touched,
we should have touched I fear.

I thought perhaps 
we both were safe
because we both were here.

My friend was telling 
me goodbye
and I did finally hear.

I knew my friend was next to me 
and turned to hold friend there
but when I reached to hold friend tight
I only clasped the air.
