Friends Passing Through She heard a sound As she sat on the cold floor And tunred to see Who had come through the door. “Would you like some coffee?” He smiled and said. What a nice Man! Was the first thought in her head. As she sat at her desk The very next day, She wondered who the attractive man was That had come her way. Nearly a year after that first meeting They became co-workers at night. A friendship began to grow That felt so right. Even then They were quite reserved Talked some about their relationships, But nothing inappropriate occurred. She was happy in her marriage So everyone thought But should the truth be known She was quite distraught. As time passed A feeling began to grow An attraction to this man Much more than he would know. This was new to her Because for so long, She was unhappy, but faithful And life went on. She changed jobs then And didn’t see this shy man. She missed the friendship That had only just begun. Fate had brought them together And now though buildings apart, The friendship grew through e-mail As did a deep connection in the heart. They became Best Friends, then lovers, Though it was wrong, But now they were Soul Mates The need was strong. He taught her love And passion she never knew. He gave her the courage to do What she needed to do. She ended that unhappy marriage And walked out one day. He gave her confidence in herself Supported here every step of the way. Then it was his turn For trials of the heart. His wife chose a different lifestyle, He chose to part. Now he needed her support As his Best Friend. And she was there for him, Through thick and thin. They had a bond, a Love, She believed was so strong But in reality, She was so wrong. Turbulent barely describes The next few years, She cried and cried A billion tears. She still loves him, There’s nothing more true. He had shown her the way, He had helped her get through. She reflects on that friendship And the nearly five years that have passed. Has the need for each other gone away Or is this a bond that will truly last? She wonders what keeps them together today, Or if any of it was true. They are Soul Mates no more, Were they just Friends passing through? |
