Closer

2 people coming together again.

In the past we use to be close,

We could talk about anything

And everything,

Our secrets were always safe

Then one day we hit a wall

We began fighting all the time,

It was something we never did

We stopped talking 

And ignored each other,

Spending holidays together were a thing of the past

But now five years later

We're closer than ever

Finally brought back into each other's lives

By heartache, but at least we get to reconcile

At least we get the chance to do that

Because most people don't even get to say "I'm sorry"

And now we're closer than ever...

And a wedge will never develop again..

So many people will relate to the sentiments expressed in this poem! Often is is a moment of heartache that bring estranged friends and family back together, allowing them to see that life is too short and time is too precious to allow fractions to form and keep them apart!

Most people dont get to say sorry because they either miss or refuse to see the opportunities to do so!

I say live with no regrets!!

A beautiful and hopeful poem. Good to renew friendship and be thankful for good friends. I like the strong and hopeful ending to this excellent poem.

I don't feel like there should be a .. at the end. I think if there will never be a wedge again, it will be more final, just a period. Also were should be was I think. Other than that, nice write. :)
