It is hard
To be the friend of your love
When you know he is
Someone else's life
It’s hard to control emotions
As old memories and dreams
Flocks the Heart, giving
A sense of great loss
Every time when you see him
Your heart craves for getting closer
Like the olden days
With nostalgic eyes
He conquered your untamed heart
Made you his beautiful princess
Filled dreams in you
About life together
Still, you are there in his heart
He wants to care for you like before
But from a distance
As a loving friend
I wrote this for a friend back in 2010. It is indeed hard to be a friend to someone you love so much. But, circumstances demand the presence in that person's life, when he is building a new life with another woman. Image courtesy Antonio Guillem .
