Leaving Friends!
Many of my friends have vanished from my life
without even bidding me a decent goodbye
To some I was bold
and let them go
But some disappeared to a place I didn't know
Some got married and settled beyond my reach
They severed from me,
when I wasn't ready for the breach
Many of my friends walked out from my heart
Without checking back, was I cold and hard?
On a day too yellow and blue of a sky
Do they too remember me in a sober silent cry?
The hole dug in my heart is fresh and deep,
The memories of fun may ravish my sleep
Their laughter is a promise that I may keep
But their return won't help my bleeding weep!
I needed them most when I was broken
I waited for their words which were unspoken
Yes, most are gone and some more are going
Without giving a hope that they were always showing
They come, they stay and then they leave
They give me a reason too solid to believe
If love is a pain and friendship relief
When friends leave, why am I left in grief?

That is a powerful poem you wrote. Over the years I think we all have friends that we have grown away from, moved away from, etc. It is good to remember their friendships and also to treasure the friendships we currently have :) Enjoy Sunday!

Indeed Betty, everybody has a set time when our destiny allows them to enter and exit. We must cherish them in every face, even if it is hard to enjoy that phase!
DeleteYes that speaks for me too. We have to learn to let friends go as well as make friends. It is hard.
ReplyDeleteYes Star.. its very hard!
DeleteHi Naqvee, It's been a while. Glad to see you're still painting and writing. Powerful poem, well done!
ReplyDeleteI think we all lose some friends over time.. for various reasons. But we also live in a time when we can reconnect with those we never thought we'd hear from again. Interesting times. That was a fine poem. May all current and future friends be in your life for as long as is right.
