Friend's face is a horizon
That can be crossed only once:
Through Betrayal.
They exaggerate their presence
And succumb to their fears...
Nothing lasts in the vicinity
Of the body, not even
The funny
Gestures of friendship.
This knife-like poise is a pause
Between lives.
Even as your boat
Is rocked by stumps of trees
Underwater, my steady heart
Is rattled by a monsoon wind!
note: this is to my friend who has always taken advantage of me whenever he was need...and
after building a support system, has alienated me from his life! But friend I just want to
tell you that your friendship still lingers in my heart.......
Through Betrayal.
And I learn
Friends have no secrets.They exaggerate their presence
And succumb to their fears...
Nothing lasts in the vicinity
Of the body, not even
The funny
Gestures of friendship.
This knife-like poise is a pause
Between lives.
Even as your boat
Is rocked by stumps of trees
Underwater, my steady heart
Is rattled by a monsoon wind!
note: this is to my friend who has always taken advantage of me whenever he was need...and
after building a support system, has alienated me from his life! But friend I just want to
tell you that your friendship still lingers in my heart.......

A really heartfelt piece of work... kudos...
But I hope the light of friendship enlightens you mind,body and soul.. so that you pen out poems of a brighter hue...
"Friends have no secrets."
Haunting line. As if all your deepest thoughts have just been exposed.
I like the poem scarlet.
