Poetry Train
Reaching
Searching
Wanting
Wishing
Knowing I can never have you
Holding something back
A friendship with barriers
So much for unconditional love
Needing
Crying
Laughing
Hoping
Getting closer to you
Pulling away from you
A friendship with limitations
So much for unquestioning love
Doubting
Believing
Trusting
Deceiving
Supporting your dreams
Crushing my own
A friendship with an end
So much for ever-lasting love.

Loved the final stanza. I really enjoy your poems, T.A.!
I hate relationships that end like that. Even friendships.
first of all, great pic!
Poem? sad. beautiful. truth.
(I’ll buy the collection)
Isn’t that how some relationships go? One wanting more than the other. Then bitterness builds until the friendship is over. 🙁
Thanks.
I’ve thought about it, Melissa.
Very powerful. I love how it gets successively more bitter. Reminded me of a former relationship of mine.
You should do a collection of your poetry, TA
Sad but so lovely.
