Broken Friendships
Friendships Lost - Bronwyn P
Friends No Longer - Sewra
This poem is dedicated to two unique people
FRIENDSHIPS LOST
I see your smile
Focused on each other
Others are here, yes,
Each friendship is special
And then time begins to roll
Slowly, surely,
Shattered shards cascade down
The scars run deep
So you move on
Now I glance across
Laughter, smiling (clenched teeth)
From behind my glass window
I hate to see your pain
What we had once
The scars run deep,
You were my friend.
Hi! I would like to submit this poem I wrote when I was mad at one of my good
friends. I'd appreciate it if you put it on the Friendship Page.
FRIENDS NO LONGER
Sorry I forgot to tell you
As that I went to say,
I meant to tell you the future looked bright,
I went to tell you we should be friends,
But you would not listen to me,

I know your mind
No words need be said
I understand.
We listen and we care
Laughter ripples like water
Together, we are.
And we value them, yes,
But a special bond remains,
A line between us two.
Each is unique
And so is ours
We know.
and rear it’s ugly head
Change begins
Now a little less than before.
Not knowing why
Faster, stronger, without care
Our world shifts and shimmers and splits.
Spurred by angry, lashing words
Contorted faces, stone deaf ears
Outside the whirlwind,
We die inside.
Jagged clefts in our souls
We have suceeded in hurting
And hurt ourselves.
And I remain
We keep on living
Turn our faces apart.
At you from outside
Shaded eyes dry with tears
New friends, new life.
The flippant toss of the head
The enclosure surrounds you
I cannot come near.
I know more than those within
I see the hurt in your eyes
I know the pain in your smile
I have been there before - I love you
Why do you pretend?
And I cry inside
Tears deep within my soul
I cannot help you anymore.
We can never have again.
But I still care.

That as my friend you must be true.
No more were we at play.
But all of a sudden we got in a fight.
That I will be here untill the end.
So friends no longer shall we be.
