Words Unspoken

This is a follow up to my poem “Leo: A Poem for a Friend (A Poem of Thanks)”. This was my way of being able to say everything I never got to say to a very dear friend I had but have regrettably lost touch with. He may never know about it but it's healing just to know it exists.

Dedicated to R. Spirito Jr.

Words unspoken I'm sorry if I hurt you or if I made you cry. It was never my intention. God knows I'd rather die. Your smile was my sunshine. Your laughter was my friend. Friendship is a blessing that never really ends. You knew just what to say to make it all okay. You seemed to know my heart right from the very start. I felt strong within your presence. You gave me wings and I could fly. The day that I went quiet, That's the day I nearly died. If I get a second chance, I'll tell you what I'd do. I'd tell you what you mean to me and prove my friendships true.
