Best Friends Forever? Poem by Paige Nielsen

Best Friends Forever?

Rating: 4.8


Forgive of me my poison pen
Venomous and bitter
You and I now poison friends
So much to consider

Your image conjured in my mind
Burns deep my wretched eye
Relief a balm I cannot find
Fair countenance a shallow lie

It hurts to scream, curse, and weep
Your name, unspeakable agony
Too much alike, it went too deep
By turns, wrath and melancholy

I miss you like a breath of air
I cannot sleep for fear of dreams
Cut to bone, my heart laid bare
Friendship is not all it seems

The emotional quality in this blows me away. Substantial. It flows so well, and the poem progresses nicely into your ending thought: 'Friendship is not all it seems' Pathos, darling, Pathos... Lovely, darling. Just find and dandy. Constructive Criticism: I can feel a hint of phrases Ive heard before, but no matter because this poem is your own Imagery: Great. Literary devices: YEAH! Content: Oh, man.
