When we were friends

What do you remember?

Swords at night,

A titanic twist of fright,

Doughnuts in the dark,

How we opened up our hearts. 

Love. 

Love is what I remember. 

I promise I won't forget those times,

When we were friends. 

Are you on your own?

Falling in and out of lonely dreams,

With cigarettes and stupid scenes.

Things we used to say,

I recall them all,

Hear them everyday. 

Memories scream and fall,

I promise I won't forget our sound,

When we were friends. 

Do you even care you hurt me?

I am by myself, 

No fortune, luck or wealth.

Just a breaking soul. 

Hold it together for a moment more, 

Please let me ask you why,

Don't leave me in the dark to die.

I promise I won't forget the pain,

When we were friends. 

How did I hurt you?

A stupid question. 

Not once did I learn my lesson, 

Just wait a moment and hear my confession. 

You threw me from Valhalla,

Took away my love and power.

Winter wilts a friendship flower.

I promise I won't forget my faults, 

When we were friends.

Will it ever end?

I hope so. 

Everything ends on an ordinary day,

Nothing spectacular and no words to say. 

Can we pretend,

That again we are friends?

I don't understand but I will wait for you.

I promise I won't forget our dreams,

When we were friends.

Hard lessons teach us. We should of been kinder. I liked the above lines. Real life feel to them. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
