Missing You When you lose a friend you also lose a part of you. The part that reached out to give and their desire to reach back to you. I don't know where old friendships go. I don't know the reason's why. All I know is I love to see a friendship grow and I hate to see a friendship go. Yet who am I to stop a friend when they have decided to say goodbye feeling this is where the friendship ends while sorry they can't tell you exactly why. And now they will be leaving me with an empty heart as they leave me wondering why and they leave me with a perfectly good reason to miss her as I break down and cry. Jameslee@October29,2000 |

James lovely write, I do hope this isn't anything to do with you and your love. If it is then you have my sympathy, and if not then I'm very happy for you. As usual James this is so true, and honest. I relly like this one Take care Marsha  Take back the hope you gave,- I claim Only a memory of the same Robert Browning |

"When you lose a friend you also lose a part of you." Oh so well said, and so very true!!! I think that nothing hurts worse than to lose someone that you care for...and not know why... this touched me deeply. Peppermint Life is a Wheel |

Wonderful thoughts James ... it amazing how sometimes friendships slip away without even realizing. What a joy when years later, they are sometimes resurrected though. Hugs to you for this tender and thoughtful piece!  Best wishes, /Kit |

Oh, James, all the way through, each line became sadder and sadder, and then your last line just reduced me to tears.  (sigh) good writing, but gosh I'm sorry. rainydays |

'as they leave me wondering why and they leave me with a perfectly good reason to miss her as I break down and cry." Very heartbreaking write, James. But, beautifully written. I hope all works out well for you! sp Do not go where the path may lead, but instead, go where there is no path and leave a trail. - Ralph Waldo Emerson |

A very moving piece especially the ending. You pack a lot of emotion into your poetry Liz |
