WHAT WAS AND WHAT IS

It all started five years ago
A brief meeting, nothing more
Two year later, our paths crossed again
A friendship began
Conversations nearly every day
Phone calls ran up our phone bills
But scolding never kept us apart
Laughter rang through the summer days
Tears were shed during any season
Romance started soon after the friendship
Nothing too serious
But enough to make us smile
Many a night spent talking
Even more nights spent in low whispers
Our three year friendship could possibly be over
And if it is, I�ll be greatly sorrowed
�Tis your choice though
Remember that
So you may have your space
Just remember...
I�ll be here if you need me
As I promised that March eve
And I keep my promises
Always
