Bittersweet Longing

5 April 1991 - a loss of friendship

I remember

Your laugh

Your smiling eyes

The tenor of your voice

As you sing to me

With bittersweet longing

 

Our friendship was precious

As a fresh bloomed rose

Love each other we did

Yet you were only my friend

 

You comforted my sorrows

You made me laugh

You drugged me with happiness

You made me cry

With bittersweet longing

 

I ache to feel the comfort

Of your arms

The warmth of your smile

The sparkle in your eyes

The love in your heart

 

I think of you

With bittersweet

Longing
