Unlasting

Ever lost a great friendship to unfair circumstances?---and I'm not talking death. It's amazing how even the stable becomes unstable so quickly.

Crystal pools of liquid grace

Across the years of hated waste

Tender thoughts, wholesome trust

Lost beneath the soul---sought lust

Sacred hope, dreams two tied

Buried long the path from pride

Need of needs solely sought

A lonesome heart came wrongly bought

Despite the love he'll make you choose

In the end it's me you lose

Once again, alone I stand

Upon this boat so far from land

Friends seem now so unlasting

A grand new phase, it ends in passing

Author's Note

was a sonnet. just forgot what i added after the glitch deleted it...didn't have them saved. so as for now it's an almost sonnet. =)

Don't know how many friends you have. I have several fingers left to count mine on. Death's stolen some. Life's taken one. Maybe I'm to choosy but the one's I have left are choice.

Aw, dearheart, I'm so sorry for you. =( we all seem to have those friends who we count on that betray us.
however, good job with the poetry. it's definately one of your best pieces.

I like this:
"Tender thoughts, wholesome trust
Lost beneath the soul - sought lust"
Those lines seem to sum up all that has happened to poor you.
