i wrote this after a strange week i spent with a
good friend of mine who i hadnt seen for a long
time. since i first met her, i knew she was special
and i wanted to be with her but she was in a long
term relationship, then suddenly one day we caught
up again and she was single, and i was in a
relationship about to end. we flirted with the idea
of getting together but she ended up not wanting
to, which was greatly disappointing, since when i
first met her she was single for a short time but i
did nothing, which has always been my one greatest
regret in life. and so it will remain. but this is
just about our wonderful week together, the
closeness we shared and how much i missed it when
it disappeared so suddenly.

we used to play together
we used to talk together
i never wanted to be alone
and now im stuck all on my own
you came to me in a flurry
and were gone in a hurry
i miss u bein there
i miss the way u care
i miss ur happy smile
that i brought to your face, for just a short while
i missed my first chance, but another arose
but i missed that too, the last, i suppose
but friends i want to be
cos i loved ur company
the way wed talk about nothing
but it was fun, it was something
i kno now that its back for good
i shouldnt have doubted, i knew it never would

Though dreams can be deceiving
Like faces are to hearts
They serve for sweet relieving
When fantasy and reality lie too far apart

Oh, MPT, I hope your friend is somewhere around you now. If, not, it sounds like you have some very good memories. My husband (who was also my best friend at the time) passed away in 1997. We had ben married for many, many years. It was very hard, but I will always cherish the happy memories that we made together. I'm so thankful for those memories. We were so in love. I'm also very, very blessed with the love of my life now..my Gary. We became best friends before we became a "couple". (He's now not only my "LOVE", but also my best friend) He has helped me through many lonely times without my husband. And he is so understanding. I love him so very, very much. I am so thankful to have been blessed with these two wonderful men in my life. Sorry, to have gotten so long with my response. Good luck to you, and best wishes.

Hello, mpt. Perhaps time will let this relationship come around again, to another beginning. I enjoyed the read.
