We were meant to be best friends

Anam Tshawuza 2005 (Cape Town)



We were meant to be
To be something great
To be more than this

How will I survive?
How will I breath?
I'm suffocated

I'm lifeless , I need you
We need you
Our Angel

Our beckon of hope
We were meant to be
Be something great

Something more
We were meant to be best friends
But now you gone

About this poem

A friend of mine passed away when we were not on talking terms. I feel like we should have talked more as we were meant to be best friends.
