Broken Friendship Poem

A late night break up call breaks a friendship in two

Late Night Talk

© Erica R. Delossantos
His name came up on the caller I.D.
At exactly eleven forty-three
I answered it in my cheerful fashion
For our late-night talk was always my passion.
But his voice told me that something was wrong like a horror movie for a showing song!
As he took a deep breath and told me that phrase we need to talk
I was in a daze, we have a connection, and get along fine!

There's nothing you've done this problem is mine. You understand don't you? Are you still there?

I tried to answer as I felt my heart tear.
Were gonna stay friends, well talk everyday, Erica do you have anything to say?

A thousand thoughts were ready to spill. But my mouth wouldn't talk as my eyes began to fill! Thoughts of being alone made me so afraid.

I'm not expecting you to understand you’re a sophomore. Life holds different demands. Still one day when your life sits on college applications and activities you'll realize why I made this choice. Talk to me Erica do you have a voice?

I would if I hadn't hung up so quick to comfort myself...I was feeling sick! So then this is it, this is the end what more can I say then? I'll miss you my friend!!!

  • I miss my friends, I mean my best friends. I miss how we laughed, how we used to be. Everyday I wish to be together laughing about anything. I miss those memories which were the best memories in my life

  • I too miss my friend. I cry myself to sleep, but I have to let him go, but I have regrets. I regret that I have never told him how precious he is to me. It's too late to tell now he too said we will talk, but thing will never be the same anymore.
