Dear Friend Poem by May Speak

It saddens me that I can no longer hold you by the hand,

Or run to you to understand.

Or cry on your shoulder like I used to do.

I still wonder why…



Was it me? Or was it you?



They say that “Guys and Girls”, they can’t be friends.

I guess that they were right because in the end

We ended up doing things that “JUST FRIENDS” don’t do.

Who is to blame?



Was it me? Or was it you?



I wish that I could go back in time..

Just press reverse, select rewind,

When things between us were still good and kind.



And missing you did not hurt so much,

And it didn’t hurt to miss your touch,

And when I wasn’t scared to say hello,

And I was never sad to see you go.



Because I always knew that with tomorrow would come

Another smile.

When you and I would still be friends…

Even just for a little while.



Now days and hours go by like speeding trains.

And the pain alone feels like pouring rain.

And the drops alone feel like thundering stones,

Seeming to fall on me, and me alone.



And still bothers me that we now stand apart

You moving on.

Me?

Torn apart…..
