To Lose a Friend
!The full length original version is here, I however decided to omit some passages!
People come into our lives
To serve some purpose or reason
Then they are gone like a puff of wind
Receding like the ending season.
---
There are times when friendships end
When nothing can hold them together
When uninvited feelings get in the way
Stirring up stormy weather.
---
One friend might begin to think
We can mend this gap if we try
But it takes two to bridge the breach
To avoid saying that final goodbye.
---
To lose a friend is such a hard thing to do
When there is no answer to our “why”
An emptiness grows deeply inside.
As we breathe goodbye on an empty sigh.
