The zone for Friends
Jan 11, 2021
When you were younger you loved a friend.
You told her,
and lost it all.
Now you’re older and in love again.
You said nothing,
and this love did grow.
You watered it from a distance,
With smiles and the pretence of friendship.
You covered it with lies,
a shoulder to cry on and friendship bracelets.
And this love grew day and night,
till it could hide it no more.
Now you grew the balls to show.
The love you stashed, under white lies like snow.
So to her dorm you go…
Your heart in your mouth and roses in hand to go…
The door flings open for you to see,
your love with another, under the sheets 💔
play on my favourite poem: “A Poison Tree” by William Blake.
