When Friends Become Foes
WHEN FRIENDS BECAME FOES
Once upon a time we had played and
chuckled in unison
Spouting the sound in a sound friendship
We had shook hands together before
We ate and drank together
We slept together rubbing in the warmth of
the day
And the cool breeze of the night with a single
lappah
Tides and market, comes and go
Time timed timelessly, we had forgot so soon
The song we used to sing together
We remember no more in our eyes
The memory of our bosom friendships
Thought split apart while fight frightened the
friendship
Lovers now lives lonely
While our thoughts now were made in a
thunderstorm
The very face that brings smile
Now frowns like a the face warmth by the
heat of a dead slap
Flying away like an eagle
Seeing only in the eyes : the redness of the
white
