Not sure what I expected ...

This wasn't written as a conventional poem so it's not supposed to rhyme every line or fit a particular structure.

Not sure what I expected to find here. I guess I hoped you'd appear and we could start again, try to make a mends, and try again to be friends. Could it work or are we beyond repair or are we just scared that if carry on it'll all go wrong? 

Have we already made up our minds that it’s easier to give up than find another path on this rocky road? God knows I wish I could take back the things I did, I wish you could forgive. But that's the thing about regret, it won't let you forget the things you did wrong or the mistakes you made and it’s a shame that it’s harder to love someone than to hate but wouldn't it be great? 

The world would be a happier place and instead of thinking we're a waste of space, hiding inside our own little bubbles, wallowing in our troubles. We'd be grateful for what good we've got which is actually a lot, we'd never overlook the amazing people in our lives, we'd never cry. We would live in harmonious bliss. 

I just wish that place could exist in another universe where we spoke to each other and were there for one another but now as I head home I hope the future is brighter and hearts are lighter. In the future I’ll do less wrong but always remember my friend who's gone.

It has an interesting structure to it. It's very heartfelt. It starts strongly negative but turns into something a little more positive. I like it.

Thanks for sharing.
