I went hunting for more of my poems I might still have lying around. Like I said in Poetry, I was dumb and threw away the majority of my poems many years ago. Here is the only other poem I was able to locate.
The Two-Way Street That Wasn’t
I’ve been there for you
Whenever you needed me.
You had my ear
And a shoulder to cry on.
Your celebrations have been mine
And I’ve been happy to share them.
I’ve comforted you
Supported you
I’ve calmed your fears
And encouraged your successes.
Yet, here I sit
Alone again
Wondering what friendship means to you
I give and give
Asking for nothing in return
But, sometimes, I wish
You gave me
Half of what I have given you.
