To the Moon and Back

In That Moment

cheek to cheek

you to me

relationships worsen

it was fine at the start

things went sour

we grew apart

new relationships flower

we both moved on

to new friends and different people

I still felt you were gone

I tried to repair us

your efforts were feeble

but when i saw you in town

in your eyes i could tell

you missed me, too

your face bore a frown 

so i smiled back at you

and in that moment i felt

that we were the same

back to the old days

of giggles and games

but i was upset by your wide-eyed gaze

regardless of appearance

i know in my heart 

that we both regret growing apart

but it happens to everyone

disappearance.

(A/N): This is a poem that can be interpreted different ways.  I'm never really confident in my poetry so I'd love to hear what you guys think.  If you don't like it, please be honest.  I'm not asking for hate, constructive criticism is the idea.  Although if you do like it, then I want to know that, too.  Anyway, this is dedicated to Noelle for being encouraging and motivational all the time with my writing, especially with my poetry or things outside of my comfort zone.  So thanks so much for being there Noelle.  This poem was written because I was talking with Noelle about how sad it is that friendships go sour or just fade out.  It's happened to me before and I think it happens to many.  This is also for any type of relationship.  Hope you enjoy. x
