Friendship Lost


I recall that day, as if it was yesterday,
When things did not well start
For on this forsaken day
My friend and I did part.

We had been friends for ages past
Yet we learned to hate
Severing the ties that held fast
Two friends to each other’s fate.

We met then as two strangers
Two enemies held at bay
A mockery of friendship
Thus marked the beginning of the fray.

Blame and insults ran unchecked
Between us, that day
Pain and anger reared anew
As, friendship… passed away.

We parted then our separate ways
Each bitter, hurt and sad
Knowing that we’d lost that day
We thought we always had.

Anwaar - this calls to me of
the civil strive of the 1860's
when the war between the states
broke out - as brother and brother,
once friends,
took separate sides
and life, as they knew it,
was never again the same.

A very good write, Sir...
thank you.

And the sad part is it probably never had to be.

Friends of the road, but not for life.
People come in and out of our lives. Each relationship has its inherent gifts and lessons.

Warm hugs,

Thank you for sharing,
...as we are all connected and just taking turns sharing, maybe there is no true loss or gain.

Beautiful expressions Anwaar!

Love,
Angela

Earthangel,
'Friends of the road, but not for life.'

Beautifully said....could not have said it better myself.

Anamcara,

  I agree totally.

To lose a friend is a painful experience...and you expressed your pain clearly...I do hope in time you will reconcile with your friend..

believe in what your heart feels...

Maybe as time passes friendship will build once again.We have friendships for a reason,
a season and for a lifetime.
Good write.
Bon-Bon
