With this there will be some closure For a friendship that is no more I need to say what's in my heart Before I close this door. Life is short, this we know In an instant we could be gone And I want you to know what you meant to me Before tomorrow's new dawn. I guess I often burdened you With troubles that were mine And now it seems, too many times I crossed over your undrawn line. Best of friends for many years Now I must somehow mourn this loss I knew it wouldn't be easy But I knew not, how high the cost. And for all the tomorrows that we won't share For the burdens we'll each bear alone Please know that I will care about you Until the day God calls me back home. I will cherish every memory... Let go of what's caused this pain And pray for peace and happiness To come into your life again. I've searched for weeks for answers Seems there's nothing left to do Except this hardest, final thing And at last, let go of you. [This message has been edited by BSC (edited 02-11-2000).] |

Letting go of a friend is always a hard thing to do. I hope that what ever has brought this separation between two friend`s, turn`s out to be just a misunderstanding. Good luck to both of you. < !signature--> Today is the first day of the rest of my life. [This message has been edited by Wizzard (edited 02-11-2000).] |

BSC ... I've lost a friend or two in my time it's a lousy feeling and usually leaves a lot of unanswered questions It's unfortunate that we've also found that time does not heal all wounds Rex |

BSC, I relate so well to this poem. Crossing an "undrawn line". Not "knowing the cost" or "knowing what else to do". I empathize with you on these feelings. Beautiful and very sad at the same time, especiall the ending. michael |
