Between Friends?

I can't take back time and erase what we had

The thought of a friendship lost makes me mad

Were supposed to be friends, atleast thats what you said

But in between the lines I should have read

Something you let go was something I'd have killed for

But then again the feelings arnt mutual anymore

If this was a lie, what about everything else you said?

The thought of such tender words not being true I dread

I cant stand the anger,or the pain I feel

All put together you couldn't possibly conceal

So why do I bother to try and get back what is long gone

The truth I guess is just starting to dawn

I'll confess, I miss you a lot

Even though I'm sure me, myself and I you have forgot

So I'll put an end to this bleeding of my heart

And I'll try again, from the very start.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Maybe moving on and letting go will end this pain?

hey.. good poem.. my friendships with my best friends are beginning to die. we're slowing moving apart.. good poem..moving on and letting go of the friendship will ease the pain a bit.. but you'd always end up regretting what you didnt do.. so im still in there for the long run with my friends.. thanks for your poem.

Ah, good good. My friends seem to like to disappear on me. Occasionally they'll come back to spit on my feet or something, but again, that alone is a rarity. And your poem here, it's good.

damn that was some deep stuff. I loved the way the words flow and it is best to let go and move on although it not always easy.
