Friendship. Poem by Anele Potelwa (Unpublished)

If times permitted,
You wouldn't have came to my world,
If life could be rewinded
You woulnt have been,
A part of my journey

If I knew you would also laugh
When all are teasing me,
I woudnt have made yo my friend,
If I knew you,
That you were going to admire my tears,
I wouldn't have made you my friend

If I knew I would miss you,
When I needed a shoulder to lean on,
I would have never,
Made you my buddy
Yes if I knew that today
You would refer yourself as an enemy
I should have killed long ago

Not by a gun,
Not by a knife,
Not by means of poisoning,
But by never, at all,
Allow a soft spot for you
