No More Friends Poem by nicholas boateng

I loved my friend and my friend loved me as well
In my downfall his eyes with tears did swell
Always by his side with laughter as in the time of the spell
Like young puppies we were and a perfection of number

Down the hill by the beach…
…And by the foul lake in love with soccer
On the bridge we stand and watch the lighthouse; a beautiful tower
Together in worship among the saints as blessings on us did shower

Yet along the joyful path an angel amongst us was set
A female angel with the look as sweet as the sunset
With me she was and at the autumnal equinox was she not found absent
“To you my love, to you alone was I sent”
…
How the love for one girl can split the best of friends
Such a shame!
