Alone

You used to come and visit You don't come by anymore I waited many hours Hoping you'd walk through the door I miss our conversations You're the one who knew me best I shared all my happy thoughts And my shortfalls I confessed I know I'm far from perfect Have I scared my friend away Without you here beside me I feel so lost everyday I got tired of waiting So I called you on the phone You feared I was mad at you As you sat home all alone

Being with someone and feeling alone is worse.

Aww, so similar to something I've gone through too. Misunderstandings can ruin a friendship if you don't straighten them out. Well done!

I'm so so glad you picked up that phone and made sure things were ok! It takes a strong man to be able to make that move. Great write!

It should never have to come to that. More time is used in life wondering than knowing. When it comes to school, that's fine cause you're learning. When it comes to friendships/relationships, that's a waste. This was a good piece, sir!

Thanks Drake. I see this happen to people and I wonder why. Both sides feel hurt and pride prevents them from making a move towards the other. In the end both are sad.
