Was it something that I said? Or something I might have done? That would explain your absence As I wonder where you've gone We once would keep in contact It seemed almost once a week But my mailbox now stands empty While answers to my questions Are what I now seek Just a simple goodbye Was all that was required But you left me hanging here Alone in a friendship you had now tired I opened up my heart to you And you saw deep inside my soul But now I feel empty and defeated Inside my heart there is a hole But you have made your own decision And have decided not to stay So I will just bow out gracefully I will not stand in your way Suetang |

Enjoyed your poem... sometimes we do wonder where someone has gone without an explanation when it would be so simple to make a simple gesture to end the questioning. |

Mind reading again? I can relate to this one all too well. I sure hope your missing email arrives soon. Maybe it's stuck in cyber space, with my missing email links? |

What a sensitive and touching poem Sue, and all to often this is simply life. The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. |

How well this fits any friendship when we wait on the other to make the first move. Seems to me I owe a whole bunch of e-mails... |

Suetang, how true is this write. Sometimes friends are gone without a trace, without a goodbye and then they resurface without an explanation , without an excuse. It always leaves me wondering. I'm glad I'm not alone in this. Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

Sue, It amazes me what an awesome poet you are! You put so much feeling into all your writes. And the rythm flows so nice. Don't ever go away. |

your title caught my eye...i love ponderings about friendships... i think it's amazing that no matter how often we face this sort of situation, our heart would still break whenever this dilemma resufaces...some days, i just want to give up and cry, "why bother?" HUGS.. |

Oh I do sense a little (or much) hurt in this, and how can anyone leave your friendship Sue. This is a very "feeling" poem, I could feel your hurt. Nicely done, floria Floria |
