Where do friendships go if they drift away? Do they sail across oceans of tears, drifting among the lonely? Where do they go, I wonder. Is there a canyon filled with lost "i love you's", waiting to be claimed by those who still can love? Are there confidential conversations drifting in the clouds? Do they whisper the secrets shared? Do they get lost with angry words twisting among them, weighted by sharp tones and bitter tears? Who trips over hurt feelings pushed off, shoved aside as friends move away? i just wonder, if pride goeth before the fall, why am i proudly falling? aziza |

What an imaginative concept, aziza! I enjoyed this very much. I am sure that your fall will end gently on a patch of soft, sweetly scented grass, for this poem (especially if you show it to whomever you feel you have wronged) will heal the wound. What does ceya'ka mean? - Owl |

Thank you so much, Owl. ceya'ka is the name of my friend -- I wrote this some time ago. We have survived, learned from that time and still share the love of friends. xoxoxo aziza |

And what a beautiful name it is. I'm not sure if it is pronouced phonetically, but I am saying it over and over the way I think it sounds and it slips so beautifully from the tongue. I am so glad the friendship survived! I thought it would have! - Owl |

Thank you all so much. I was lucky with this friend and am so glad that we were able to learn and move on. If this inspires forgiveness, I am happy! Sometimes, we simply have to forgive ourselves in order to mend the fences. Just a thought anyway. aziza |
