Role Reversal

Role Reversal

A Poem by Ricky Whitefield
"

The promises pledged to our closest friends are never to be broken. We stick by those we love deeply. Let it be so forever. I explore the heart-wrenching feelings that accompany new beginnings.

"

Saturday 27th September 2014.


The end of another chapter                                                                                   

The turning of another page                                                                                                                         

Emotions ambushed                                                                                                                                   

Tears streamed                                                                                                                                       

Hope twinkled                                                                                                                                       

Fear lurked                                                                                                                                               

The unknown tapped my shoulder                                                    

The dawning of a new day.


Friday 18th September 2015.


      The awakening of independence

The entrance into the unknown

   Emotions will run high

Hearts will swell

Eyes will water

Hope will inflame

The dawning of a new day.


Distance is meaningless...

Your friendship means everything. You mean everything.

Thus begins that bright future: 

regardless of distance, side by side.
