Missing Moments

Missing those moments that only friendship and companionship can provide

I miss the laughter,

The joyous moments we stole together,

Those furtive looks,

And the inside jokes

That cracked us up.

I miss those weekends

We used to meet,

And just talk

Or go for lovely walks,

And the long weekends we would pack up,

Just going for road trips.

I miss the freedom we had

Especially when we were together - 

We could be ourselves and do almost whatever suited us.

Alas, we grew up

And further apart we went

Losing touch with each other,

Making other, new friends along the way.

But I will never forget those

Precious memories we had with each other

That made up for most of our childhood - 

Those will stay in our hearts forever

Connecting us in ways otherwise impossible,

For our friendship and love was a rare gem.

Author's Note

Hey, it's been a long time since I reviewed this poem. I decided to leave it as is and post it (again).
