To A Friend

by Bobbie J. Brown - Scorpio

I never got the chance to be your friend,
only to meet you,
and that was where it had to end.
For me to write you would cause you pain.
I won't hurt you,
but I will remember your name.
We both have a common bond -- poetry
that we can use
whenever it's each other that we need.
There were answers you never got
from me because our time was short,
so I'll tell you afterall.
I am a female just like you,
Who writes her poetry 
from the heart about special people too.
Most of it is all experience
and that's one thing I will admit.
My poem 'Regret' had to do with a bad circumstance.
I will not say the word, just listen to what it says
and you can figure out
that it was a wrong decision that I truthfully regret today.
I don't know you very well,
but I am sure your a special person.
One who writes from the heart, It's not hard to tell.
I wish we'd got the chance to become friends,
not just a hello followed with a goodbye.
You know where to find me if you finally get the chance.
But until the day we can meet again,
I will remember you.
If you need -- send a poem on cyberpages to this your friend.
I will keep my eye open for you
on here everyday
looking for poems I can read that are from you.

Reason for writing:

    This is a really quick poem that goes out to someone I met recently.  I just wanted to let her know even though we can't be friends -- she's always welcome if she ever gets the chance.  I don't want to say her name in hopes she wont get in trouble, but I think if she reads this she will surely know.
