My Friend – Poetry

My friend!

Why have we drifted apart?

Sometime back, you meant a lot to me,

Maybe

I too meant something

To you.

But now, strangely

We rarely meet,

We hardly communicate.

My friend,

Why have we drifted apart?

When ever I look

At a closed door,

I remember you.

That’s what you became

To me, my friend,

A closed door

That doesn’t open

However hard I knock.

My friend!

Why have we drifted apart!

Sometimes do read my

Messages,

Sometimes do send me some.

So that I can assure myself

That all is well with you.

My friend!

Why have we drifted apart?
