My Friend

the trees are bare
their leaves have fallen down
they lie naked upon the ground
scattered for miles around
disturbed only by my feet
as i shuffle through them
thinking of the time past
and of the time at hand
surrounded only by lonelyness
my friend
i still think of you
and unto you i ask
where can i go
when i'm feeling low
what do i do
when i don't have you
to talk to
to hold on to
seperated only by space
yet we are worlds apart
still i think of the time
when we were close
hand in hand
we would walk together
your sweet words
would sooth my mind
oh, you are so kind
i can remember when
i would hold your warm breast
tightly against my chest
what happened to us
and the time we had at hand
was my love not good enough
for you
my friend
i still think of you
the same way i thought before
i need you now
more than i did before
even though i know
i won't see you again
so i write this poem for you
even though i know
you'll never read it
once more i'll try and say good-bye
and close my mind in hope to cry
tych

I think you read my mind in that one...this poem is something I can truly relate to...I've been through it before...

Beautifully done...I hope to hear more from you...and let me be the first to welcome you to the forums. Welcome!
