I know that soon you will be gone
It grates against my heart.
Yet still I'm glad that in your life
I was allowed a part.

Through tears I see the memories
Of each and every year.
Every day I spent with you
The hours I hold dear.

I wish that I had told you
Every day how much I care
And appreciate the love you gave
When friends were never there.

The times I said 'I hate you'
But you loved me anyway.
The times I said to leave me be
But you would always stay.

Now that you are leaving me
I know I'll never find
Another soul so close to me
Who could ever be so kind.

inspired by a friend who touched my heart more than he knows.

Be thankful for what you have and tell someone close to you how much you love them.

I can definitely relate to this poem, but not on a friendship kinda way, more as a close relative. My friends aren't that kinda people, and I don't really mind, because I'm not either.

Nice....

"Be thankful for what you have and tell someone close to you how much you love them." You look deep into things., and by saying that, I know that you're someone who doesn't take things for granted. You know what? your words strongly remind me of two entries I wrote in my journal.

"Value them now, when you still have the time to look at them, see them, feel them. When they still have the time to let you observe them. I understand that life is fragile. A fragile little thing. And that is why we have to value what we have right now, value your family; your parents, your sisters, brothers, cousins, aunts, uncles, and your friends. Don't let a second go by without telling them that you love them. Don't regret telling them your love when it's too late. "

A musician must play music, poet must write, an artist must paint if he is to be ultimately at peace with himself. What one can be, must be.

that's how I was thinking of it as well. I hope it can relate to lots of people's situations. :-)

That's so sweet :happycry:

The simplistic rhyming pattern was appropriate for this poem, and I like how it was so easy to understand (God knows my poetry isn't) and the flow went so well.

The message was so heartwarming.
