The plan was so simple
We said our goodbye
Our time now is up
Alone, I will cry

You walked away
And found someone new
It doesn’t work, I promise
Because I tried it too

A late night visit
A knock at the door
Inside your dream
We met once more

We claim it was wrong
But it felt so right
Like our bodies belonged
Together in the night

Our words have been spoken
Nothing more left to say
We did what was natural
Then I walked away

I don’t want you back
In the web that we weave
I will tell you the truth
You will not be deceived

I don’t want to talk
No drama no fights
I just want to lay with you
And do what feels right

I will tell you my secrets
And we’ll laugh till we cry
I need my best friend back
I think we should try

With no promise of tomorrow
We’ll hold on for just today
When we lose what makes this special
That’s when we’ll walk away.

So bittersweet was this piece when I first read it.. You've painted a picture of a love so fragile.  ..I would hope that if it's true, the one more nights would never end. Beautifully done!

If it was that easy for me I think I would have the person I called my best friend, back. Thank you for sharing this amazing piece.

I love your poems. I do very much. You are from heaven.

Lady Lost,

     Wow, I think we all could have written this one together.  However you said it so beautifully.  I would venture to say that we have all been caught up in something like this... doing something we know is actually wrong, but feels so right, only to know there's no destiny...however wishing, wanting, desiring.  Great work here, it hit home.

"I will tell you my secrets
And we’ll laugh till we cry
I need my best friend back

I swear your poem moved me to tears.
I had a best friend [who i consequently fell in love with], he would talk to me about my secrets, make me see that i wasn't a failure..

and then something took him away, somehow that special thing was gone.

and i'm painfully trying to limp away.

sorry, i'm sure thats more info than any of u wanted to hear...
my point was that [this sounds corny, BUT] i want to thank you for writing this, because it rings so true to me...

love,
Ipek
