Take one step forward <br />Now take two steps back <br />Was it something that happened <br />Was it something I lacked? <br /> <br />Spiraling in circles, <br />Entangled in an web, <br />A line not meant to be crossed, <br />Was it something I said? <br /> <br />Took down the boundaries, <br />Climbed over the walls, <br />What was once truth now a secret, <br />Were we both in the wrong? <br /> <br />Unspoken words, <br />Knowledge can’t be exposed, <br />Something special was lost, <br />A friendship so easily disposed. <br /> <br />No more conversations, <br />Left heavily upon empty hearts, <br />Both knew it was wrong, <br />It should never have had to start. <br /> <br />Is an apology all that’s left? <br />Is there nothing left to say? <br />Once a friendship so strong <br />Disappears the next day. <br /> <br />Approach your future carefully, <br />Leave all mistakes in your passed <br />I promise I’ll never forget you <br />I’ll make the memories last.<br /><br />Sherri Anderson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/just-once-5/
