From Lovers to Friends

 

How does one go

From Lover to Friend?

When the loving stops

Must it all end?

 

I love someone

Because they are they.

Because the flesh can't meet,

Must we all go away?

 

You're an interesting person,

I think you're rather sweet

Even though our chemistry

No longer generates heat.

 

Sit back and flow

With what life gives.

Don't be afraid

To let friendship live.
