I Lost a Friendship

Faded Friend
by: Rob Paquin

From the mist;
A friendship borne
It's just fantasy and smoke
For all the many
Promises
It's just another endless joke


And like a perfumed fairy tale
Or a hunger left untended
The whole of it I can decribe
As another friendship ended


Thoughts and feelings fade away
No more to be felt
So here I am with empty prayers
Before the altar
Where you once knelt

Oh wow. I felt this one. I've been there, and I understand. It's well written. Thank you for sharing it.

@HikingMan Yes, I know all too well. There were moments of darkness for me in the past. Part of life, I suppose. Writing helped. I really liked the way you wrote this.

Thanks. I just type. Sometimes things people like come out of it.

Maybe this is one of those times.

@HikingMan Seems to be. It’s a gift to have your writing resonate with people.

There you go again, reaching in deep and pulling out poetry. Thanks for joining us in the challenge. 🤗

In my mind, the world just rhymes. So let me thank you for taking time. To read my lines, and for saying they're fine. Please come back again sometime.

Your words describe a place I have been many times. Very nice.

I'm pretty sure everyone has been there. Thanks for reading.

Awww. I'm always here for you!!🤗

This is another nothing to me as far as my rhymes go. Just some creative stylings from a prompt.

Not even sure why I do these things. All they seem to produce are hollow little things that tend to annoy me.

Anyway, and to be honest, I do truly appreciate both your friendship and kindness, sweet lady. I'm most definitely happy to know you.

Thank you for reading this small portion of drivel.

@HikingMan I'm blessed beyond words to know you as a friend & humbled by your words. Thank you.

You have to throw some energy somewhere, so it's all good. I haven't been in the mood to finish our dark one, but it'll come.

🤗😘😍

I can only imagine how that date would end....
