I saw her face, her eyes met mine
Her smile I'd ne'er forget .
I heard her speak, some facts to know,
Our friendship's on the vine?

Each morn I wondered what it would take,
to bring that smile to life.  
Would it be a tease that light her face,
and help her worries to erase?
A happy world I'd offer her, let's say goodbye to strife.

One day I found her fighting tears, my heart sank to an end.
Attempts to comfort bounced back to me, no smile, the sorrowed stare,
As I walked away I cried inside, I failed her as a friend.
For friends indeed are the friends in need, her pain she would not share.

A special place within her heart, I wanted to be there...
But soon I'd see her heart was closed, no matter how I'd care.
I tried and tried to kindle coals, an ember is all I need;
Was friendship growing cold, I asked, what happened to the seed?

Like water held within a hand, her friendship turning gray,
Embrace the one I could not hold, I wanted her to know;
I spoke to her the meaning still, the words I had to say.
Admiration, the seed of love that needs some words to grow.

Remembering, I think of how a dream could visit and be real;
Talking, sharing, smiling, I've nothing but a sigh.
Our world's have drifted, I wish not, her smile plays well within my heart;
I cannot live the past again, yet miss her, yes, I feel.

When we do not dare to speak, there will always be regrets. Does she know? Maybe not ... and isn't it a pity?

You have written this very well.

Welcome to Pip. Looking forward to more from you and to see you around.

Love,
Margherita
