How it Started

By Nafumjromwami

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I cannot tell the precise moment our friendship was formed. As in filling a Vessel drop by drop, the last drop made it run over. It was a series of her kindness, which made my heart run over. She became close to me as my skin, she imparted colour, drama, and... meaning to my life. She was all that I needed and wanted. Opposition had made our friendship true, she warned me appropriately, She made me worthy of myself. My faults she contained , and so did I. I thought it would last forever But she started seeing someone else. I quickly lost her. A mistake for a lifetime.I have learned one painful truth: to be slow in choosing friends and slow in changing Written December 29th, 2001 © on Dec 29 2001 02:43 AM PST   0 • 8
