Broken Friendship Poem

Poem For A Lost Friendship

I met a friend on the Internet. We talked for what seemed like forever. But in the end I guess it wasn't long enough. I found out that she had another, one that she couldn't live without. I would always joke about winning the little arguments here and there. I was told that I made her smile. She said that she was sure, then she changed her mind. I know that it has happened to us all. But in the end, can't we all win once in a while?

Black Tears

Published by Family Friend Poems July 2011 with permission of the Author.

Tears falling on my keyboard tonight...
Not tears of longing or sorrow..
But tears of the deepest night..
Looking for a way to explain..
A way to cope with the end..
A friendship lost before it started..
There was a glimmer of hope, once..
But now that has faded into the dark..
Wondering what to do with the next step..
Wanting to try and look the other way..
But when I look up from the keys..
I see that all has gone the worst way..
I'm not one to want pity, nor sympathy..
But just for once, why can't I win..
Superman is but another face..
Strong is what I want others to see..
But if you know me, truly know me..
Then you know that I'm not so..
Those who bring sunshine to others..
Get to keep none for themselves..
Oh but don't worry, I'll be fine..
Just as every time before this,
But maybe the next time,
Just maybe,
I'll win..

I had a best friend, he knew me like the palm of his hand, we were really close, we shared our secrets, our concerns. One day he decided to tell me he liked me, well I felt bad because I didn't see him that way, so I told him that I only wanted to see him as a friend, he got extremely sad, especially when I told him I liked his nephew. One night he called me and told me he wanted to stay away from me because he was going to hurt if he kept on talking to me since I didn't feel the same way. I knew it was for the best for him, I cried after we hung up, and up to this day I still feel awfully sad, I had lost an important, special person in my life and I'm never going to get him back.
