Friend of Mine
by
Mark Bishop
Our minds have intertwained
we will always remember now
about the way we feel in our souls
your path has caught up with mine
how am I supposed to turn my back on you now
your words are not easy to forget
I think about them night and day
so I guess it's easy to say
you really move me with your deep words
I know inside it still hurts
to let go of a love that's no longer yours
but let your heart be broken free
of the bondage it holds in you and me
a little light to spark your heart
a little shove, a push to start
and no longer will it hide from you
the love you wanted to renew
for your family and your friends
nows the time to make amends
we will always remember now
about the way we feel in our souls
your path has caught up with mine
how am I supposed to turn my back on you now
your words are not easy to forget
I think about them night and day
so I guess it's easy to say
you really move me with your deep words
I know inside it still hurts
to let go of a love that's no longer yours
but let your heart be broken free
of the bondage it holds in you and me
a little light to spark your heart
a little shove, a push to start
and no longer will it hide from you
the love you wanted to renew
for your family and your friends
nows the time to make amends

it almost makes you want to cry. anyone who has had to let a love go, and move on, can most certainly relate to those words. definitely makes you feel like this love was monumental, not easily forgotten. a person that you still want in your life, though you can no longer be with them. definitely outstanding :)

Right I can relate. Moving in this direction myself. Very well written. Felt every word throughout.

LIKE IT
|
Really enjoy the imagary and flow. Exceptional piece of work.

I really like the flow and especially the middle of the poem... One little thing though: I would change "renew" to "anew"......... Great structure too.... It reminds me of what my xgirlfriend and I are going thru a bit right now...
|
 |
Specially the punctuation like comas, full stop and etc...then it can be expressed well...good work but need some brush up! overall sounds a bit boring too. need to add more rhymes to it... It's only a suggestion not an offense! Please check out..http://poetry.com/poems/397003-Review-my-poems

Moving on can be so hard to do but it can be done. Reminds me of someone I knew. I loved this poem! Keep writing!
|
great structure
|
 |
Two very different lives become intertwined as one. One is broken and the other is whole, a cured nature and balance is finally at hand. Take a second chance at love and life.
