I cant get past it,
almost cant bear to look,
though its in front of me
and theres no-where else to turn.

Cant divert my eyes,
as the vision is already there,
in every area of this room,
as it closes me in
and closes the space in my heart.

Someones taking what once was mine,
something so precious,
its irreplaceable,
The type of gift that only comes,
once in a lifetime

A true friendship that we once shared,
Talking for hours,
sharing everything,
so close,
sometimes I forgot where you began and where I ended.

Now its all gone,
someone else has your heart,
shares your dreams,
shares your future.

I wont apologize,
or make excuses.
Wont play it down.
This is how it is.
I cant get past it.

Dear friend, I know this ache.  It will get better ... but it will take time.

Lovely way to express it, though.

True friendships don't end. This poem is entirely sad. But I know what you mean and what you write of, (unfortunately)

Nice writing...I know we get caught up in our emotions, but in reality, one door closes and another opens...James
