Understanding Friendship

I am at peace, because I understood My friends are leaving me for good. I can never say that I truly love them. The lovely memories are like a wonderful song But maybe I was wrong Friends are seasonal and don’t last long. I used to think that They will be in my heart always. It took me a while to realise that I am better off without them. It would be a lie to say that I will always love my friends. (Read from the last line to the first)

Wow this is so creative and clever how you can read from the top to the bottom and bottom to the top and it still flows so well. I would like to oneday try this. And as for the content what you’ve expressed here, i really can resonate because i always say that too that friends are seasonal etc. and you’ve expressed all that which hits home for me. Definitely a fave. And congratulations on your win

Veena, I found this a very intriguing composition and the "double" upside reading sealed it. Don't know how ya did it but it worked beautifully
