The Concrete Walls of Friendship

Hello :)

Oh, this is my 2nd time posting in wattpad! Hihi~

I wrote this poem for an old friend of mine who has been

an amazing and unforgettable friend for years. :D

Lately, I've been having feelings of anxiousness towards

Our friendship, that's why this is clearly for her. :')

Thank You so much for those who will read :)

And I mean it ;)

The Concrete Walls of Friendship :)

I. As time stands still throughout this lifetime,

I think about the many shades of colors I saw,

The many voices I've heard within my sound range,

And the different flow of emotions existing in it.

II. Walking along the snow-filled ground alone,

I stare at the little trees hugging each other,

Then I suddenly remembered those pleasing times,

Where it was just you and me laughing together.

III. No, this is not words of longing for love.

These are simply words of a person who longs to...

Who longs to embrace a precious person all over again.

Someone precious enough to be taken away from you.

IV. Tears and snow were mixing up my inner emotions,

These tears that continue to search for you in the shadows.

Though, time may have separated our paths, I will never regret...

All the misadventures that life has given us the chance to embark.

V.  There was never a time I would forget about your laugh,

Whether it was in the hot summer sun or in the cold falling rain,

You were like this maple-coloured leaf that was fragile in its places,

But never did that made me hesitate to spend countless moments with you.

VI. I look back at the times when we would gave each other cold shoulders,

I was always terrible at it while you were the one who was very good at it too.

I miss the way you would sarcastically hit me with your stern words,

You were sometimes self-centered, but I knew patience was going to bind me.

VII. Although, pain and overreactions would echo inside me,

I thought about how it would all be like if it were upside down.

The me who wouldn't have met you and spent days without your tiny presence,

And the you who would always clam-up whenever you feel dazed and lonely.

VIII. I stood by and watched this friendship grow into something unimaginable,

Being total opposites from the world, expecting this friendship to grow...

Was never one of my look-throughs in life, but fate proved me wrong.

Until every little thing we shared, started to fall back in different places.

IX. Now, I'm staring at nothing but pure white along the cold road,

Telling myself, 'what if I hadn't met up with you in the other life?'

The other life, where in the past, you would always laugh and smile.

Reminscing all of it brings back tears of happiness and continuing pain.

X. Behind these concrete walls of friendship, lies a heart that is ready.

Ready to move on and forgive, ready to accept all your best and worsts.

I sit here, waiting for the time when the snow will tell me to take a leap of faith,

Because all I know is that friendship wouldn't have begun without you and me in it.
