-Friendship-

Why is it
That when love ends,
People always ask
Can we still be friends?

Of course you know
The answer is yes.
Even though your thoughts
Are all a big mess.

Why does anything
Have to change?
Why cant feelings
Just stay the same?

When you know you've found
True love in a friend,
You can always be confident
That friendship wont end.

When it comes down to it,
Who needs to be loved?
When you've got true friendship;
A gift sent from above.

Dont cry because its over....smile because it happened

Sometimes we want to rush past the friendship so we can say we're in love...James

So often the love that is in a friendship is stronger (and better, at times!) then that which we call being "in love". Cling on to your friendships first, and wait for love until the time is right...

Just some thoughts... A good poem. I enjoyed reading it.

~El Campeador

“We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best that we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” –Robert Louis Stevenson
