Just Like A Friend Poem by Sherri Vogel

No need to answer
Just called to say
You wrote a letter
Arrived today.
It's on the table
I read it through
To my surprise
Was signed by you.
You said you were sorry
You broke my heart
Asked for forgiveness
Hoped we could start
Where it all ended
So long ago
Why do you want this
I need to know.
After you left
I went on with life
Even became
Another man's wife.
But he started cheating
I said we were through
It's really great
Hearing from you.
I've really missed you
How have you been
It should would be nice
To see you again.
We could go out for dinner
A movie or just
Spend some time talking
To build back the trust.
Years have passed quickly
There's so much we lost
But losing your friendship
Was not worth the cost.
Forgiveness comes easy
Hearts always mend
When it's something worth keeping
'Just Like A Friend.'
