I wrote this one when I was havin some tough times with some friends.  I actually gave this one to a friend who I couldn't show her how much I appreciated her friendship any other way.  (Dopey_Dope, the explanation is for you.  Didn't realized you appreciated my explanations so much.   )


IF

If only I could let you see
How much you mean to me
Spend more time with you
Instead of just that simple few

If you could see
You’re such a friend
I hope our friendship
Has no end

If I could show you
What in you I see
You would see
The way I wish that I could be

If you disappeared one day
I don’t know what I could say
I’d wish I could have been a better friend
With more often a hand to lend

Javier got his wish.     You give in too easily, Cody.  
I liked this poem!  I noticed lately your poetry is of a less spiritual tone than usual, it's nice to see you exploring other themes.

Thank you all for your replies!     I love to hear how the poem sounds to everybody else.  I'm glad to hear that you could relate to it!  I write to vent, to get my feelings out, so it's totally awesome to hear that somebody can actually relate to what I wrote, and that it meant something to someone.  Than you all SO much for your replies!
