A Place Indeed

A Place Indeed

A Poem by Zoe
"

frustrated with youth today

"
I'm not talking about that kind of love full of fire and lust.
just friendship.
simple enough 
pure.
delicate.
harder to find than love. 

once a heart is torn open, the dam of secrets 
breaks through.
so many words. so many words. so many words. 
so many words. so many words. so many words. 
so many words. so many words. so many words.
can I trust you?

Back stabbed over and over,
scarred skin     a road map on my back. 
recycling friends like soda bottles.
...so confused.

just looking for a playmate
wishing for a time machine so it all could
be
easier.

i promise to be loyal
and to keep my pinkie-swear
and to share my toys
and to not cut your hair for real when we play hairdresser

but it's not like that anymore.
does friendship have an expiration date?
age only complicates things.
not fair, but I'm always
looking.
looking for that person who will wear the other half to my 

he/art 
necklace.

Friendship is stronger then love. Nothing as good as to have someone to tell what you want and someone willing to do what you need. Poem is amazing. There is a wisdom in your words too. Take pain to know pleasure. The poem is amazing. Thank you.
