I Think I'm Loosing You

Out of my life is where you're headed.
There you go flying away,
when all I want you to do is stay.
Stay with me, in my life.....
I thought we promised to be there for each other
in good times and in strife.

Remember all those happy times
and how we'd wish they'd last forever?
Or what about the times we tried so hard to keep our friendship together?
Boy, what a great endeavor.

We laughed together and smiled together.
I didn't want those moments to end.
Why are you leaving me now?
I thought you were my friend.

I guess things aren't working out like we thought they would.
Two friends aren't staying together like they should.

Our inside jokes, will they be forgotten?
Yeah I guess so.
New jokes I must now be taught then.

We used to say, "I love you."
That phrase once had great meaning to it.
But now those words are old and worn.
Those words can't mend a heart that's torn.

You say it'sjust impossible
to still go on as friends each and everyday.
But I don't think that's so.
Let me help you undestand the real meaning of frienship, so that you will truly know:

Friends stay together no matter what.
Our special bond, our tie,
can never be cut.

In each others memories is where we should remain.
My dear friend, if you don't understand this
what am I to do?
My heart will be forever in pain.

I don't want to lose you
That's why I'm holding on tight.
I know you don't believe my heart filled words,
but I guess that's why I pray for you every night.

I'll never forget you. Please don't forget me.

"Don't let fear's bronze weigh you down. Courage is wings,so melt the bronze and fly honey!"

I'm moving this to Open #25, where it will get more attention than it will in a Discussion forum.

Dannie, ~Welcome to Passions~

Yes, it is always sad when friends move away from us. New interests and becoming wrapped up in new chapters in life, seem to change some of us. The loyalty shown in this poem is admirable.

Warm regards, Pat

well, qa, don't be shy around here because everyone is freindly and gentle with their critiques unless you specifically tell them not to be   . PIP is like a second home to many of us.

Welcome to Passions, Dannie.
I really enjoyed your first post and
look forward to seeing more of your
poems. It's really hard to put the first
one on a forum for everyone to see, but
it gets a lot easier, believe me...LOL
I haven't been here for very many months,
but this is like a second home to me. I love
it here, and I hope you will, too.

Hello, and welcome.  I am sure that you find a place here that is a retreat away from the world, and people who will support you in any way that they can.

Thank you.

Hi   This is a very nice poem.  I can relate to a lot of it.  I know how you feel about posting your poem.  I'm new too and I just revealed one of my poems to the world for the first time last night.  I was quite hesitant at first but my friend convinced me and I'm really enjoying it.  I hope you have an enjoyable time here too.

Beautiful expression of your feelings...its times like these that we realize that we really have no control over anothers final choices...they may or may not want to be our friend for any of a thousand different reasons...of course it is disappointing to lose a friend we value...James
