Shane..

6:46 PM / Posted by Akshat /

Though it has been a short while,
But I've never had a friend like you...
But soon you will be leaving me,
And I really don't know what to do....

I confronted you nonetheless,
With a lot of confusion and much pain...
So many questions I have.
When will I see you again???

How can it be so short??
The time we have spent together...
You are leaving so early..
And I thought we would be friends forever..

How can I say goodbye???
No words, but just tears fall...
Are we gonna meet again??
Perhaps here again; the world is small...

The hardest part of any friendship
Is when it is time to say goodbye...
And even though I wish I can make you stay,
I know I gotta let you spread your wings and fly...

So follow your heart and never give up,
As dreams and wishes do come true..
For I hope that someday we'll meet again,
But until then.....I WILL MISS YOU!!!

This poem is dedicated to my very first reader Shane...

You have always inspired me and encouraged me...

I hope you didn't have to leave...but if solitude is what you want...then WE will not stop you...but if you ever want warm friendship again...never hesitate to run back here...and I really do hope that this isn't the last goodbye......

P.S.Oh and this is your Christmas gift..I thought I would give it to you on Christmas eve..but what the heck!!!



Your blog will remain on my blog roll..cause I know your love for writing..and I hope I will get to read another masterpiece from you soon enough!!

And btw, blog updated at long last...

One more thing... With what font did you write that "gift". I have something like that, but it's a trial version. Is it dearJoe by any chance? Lemme know.

Peace.

@Sushant

I know the importance of the poem for you!!..Hey can't you stop her???

Thanks for the sweet words!!

@Kartz

Waiting for your comment....remember to be critical!!:P

Would visit your blog in a jiffy...

And the font...it resembles dear Joe...but this one is Joe Hand 2 !!
Mine is a trial version too...but the special characters in the "gift" is from the font Jane Austen!!

Peace!!

Comment by Kartz on December 18, 2008 10:13 PM

Well, I was quite surprised too. Had nominated her for an award when I noted that her last post was titled "Goodbye..."

Anyway, as the French say - c'est la vie!

The poem was fine. Lucid and rich with emotion... I felt the rhyming was forced at some places though. The last stanza, however, was in a league of it's own.

Peace.

Damn! So yours is trial too? Both the Joes... Sheesh... I have been scouring the web. To no avail...

Comment by Akshat on December 19, 2008 11:26 AM

@Kartz

She caught everyone with a surprise!!!

Do the french really say that???...kidding!!:P

Well I had conjured the whole poem in half an hour...so I agree it ain't perfect..:P...but it nonetheless conveyed what I wanted to say!!!:)

Keep scouring for the font..and if yo find the full version....tall me first!!:P

Peace!!
