Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
Losing a friend through divorce.

Broken

by Kaiku

Everyday
I miss my friend.
I try and find a path
That separates me
From that friend
But I am unable.
I even try to rationalize
With logic and reasoning
And still can't walk away
From my friend.
Too many memories
I have packed away.
Yes, a few I would rather forget.
It's not the time alone
That I live with,
It's the time away from my friend
That I can't live with.
I sometimes sit in my chair
Thinking the front door will open
And there would stand my friend.
The doorknob has been still.
I've tried making new friends
Difficult to do
When your one friend in life
Is all you really need.
There remains a season of life
For the both of us.
A season winding down.
It would be wonderful
If our remaining season
Could wind down together.
Is that too much to ask
My friend?
