LOSING A FRIEND

Where oh, friend is thy true face, the one I used to know,
The one that used to laugh with me, that helped me learn to grow?
Why now have we turned away from all those things we shared,
Can time not leave a simple memory or moment unimpaired?

I always tried to reach out and give you the best part of me,
Now it seems I’ve failed as you turn away from me and flee.
What did I do, how can I make it right, this apparent thing,
Which caused you to throw our closeness away and to sorrow bring.

I am me, that’s all I am, I can’t be anything more,
You liked me this way once, remember that, before you leave my door.
And if you go, I’ll cry for you and all you’ve thrown away,
But through the pain I’ll always wish we could go back to yesterday.

Elizabeth OlesenThere is always sadness in losing a friend. The mind is active to recall the memories of friendship and sadness continues to linger on when friendship is gone or intentionally cut off. Very nice poetic lines expressing deep feelings.Denmark9/23/2009 4:16:02 PM

JessThank You. This Poem Helped Me Along When, My Best Friend Left Me. But There Is Something I Found Very Interesting About This Poem.. You Said "What did I do, how can I make it right, this apparent thing," I Keep Looking Back And Back On That One Line And I Just Realized. I Didnt Do Anything. My Friend Just Left. Left Me. I Dont Get It. How Could Something Like This Happen. :-/ It Makes Me Wonder What All Is Going Through His Head. I Loved This Poem. I Thank You. Its Helped Me Through This Time.
