We were friends you and I, least that's what I thought Things now they are different, seems I've been caught again You gained a place in my heart, with you laugh and smile Your openness and fragility, you took me by surprise Yes we were close, but you wanted more It just wasn't possible, situations didn't allow it To move on with life, we agreed, was good We'll keep in touch, after all we were friends! Now as time moves on, you build your new life I say hello and wish you well, time goes on, are you there? Can't help but wonder now, what was it all to you? A passing diversion?, We are strangers now Don't get me wrong I'm not bitter, just disappointed Not so much in you, but me, for I should've known better Well the door now is closed, bolted good and tight So knock, knock, knock away, I'll not let you in, not again!!! Not all those who wander are lost. ~J.R.R. Tolkien |

So Heartfelt and well written, Eagle. Yep, sometimes we have to bolt the door on things that will continue to hurt us, if we don't. netswan |

Eagle One...this piece speaks with the voice of sincerity and although you showcase its vulnerability, you also bring to light the strength that has arisen from the pain. Still, there's a certain sadness... Nicely written. ~ Claire |

EagleOne~ Such a haunting look at friendship past. Don't lock that door too tightly ... another may want to enter. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Netswan ~ Thanks for reading and for your comments.  Claire ~ Yes there is sadness there, but from sadness and pain comes strength. Thankyou! Marge ~ Don't worry, I won't keep it locked. Not all those who wander are lost. ~J.R.R. Tolkien |

 My dear friend* This is a wonderful piece and it shows the heart of a man that has been hurt but also the man with the strength to go on to love again another day. Yes protect your heart from those that only wish to use what they can and then leave but be free to let those in who's lives are enriched by what you have to offer and give you the same in return. **Angel Wing Hugs**Hold me for yesterday Kiss me for tomorrow But love me for today. |
