Too Late

TOO LATE
By Lonnie L Freeman

Did you my friend know, long before the easterly glow
Of my sleepless plight on this ungodly night
Did you my friend, ever even slightly, understand
That the friendship we once had is what drove me mad
More than Friends, I felt, as my heart away did melt
Until that last day when the sun did melt away
Into the deep blue sea, taking you away from me
I think you never knew of my eternal love for you
You're my friend you know, as the sun sets the east aglow
To shine without a sound upon your cross in the ground
