It should not be a sad thing,
To be a friend.
But I cry at night, on an empty pillow.
And every day I dream about you,
And see your face, in shadows.
It should not be a bad thing,
To be a friend.
But every night I dream about you.
And in the day, I cry without you,
And give myself to sorrow.
It should not be so maddening
To be a friend.
you captured what many feel at times --excellent
Thank you Ghazala and Stephen for your lovely comments. ?
Thanks also to everyone who has clicked 'Like' for this poem ?
There's still quite a few poems to go in the 'unrequited love' theme before we reach the next theme - They each have their own unique features (for better or worse) so hopefully it won't be too boring. (I'll keep my fingers crossed (at least some of the time) ?)
A very profound, moving poem. Thank you, Aviva.
It's crazy good to hv a true friend for ever. Theme is maddening cute?

Thank you Brian for commenting ?
It is a bit like singing a popular song, I suppose. Everyone knows the tune, they've either sung it themselves or heard it often, so there's no room for a bad rendition to go un-noticed. I'm glad it sounded correct.
