Losing a friend for love

Today I cry at the loss of a friend

What is now the beginning of an end

At first there were no feelings you say

Life was sunshine and plenty of hay

Plans were made to stay together

Friends Forever... Friends Forever…

Then came and hit a realization

Is this some sort of infatuation?!

Nah, Its not serious, you kid yourself

And silently watch them with someone else

But something seems definitely amiss

Something disturbing a perfect bliss

Your heart is unhappy, pinching you

Forces you to believe in something new

This is more than being just friends

You want more, is the signal you send

Confusing is the equation for all involved

Needs an ‘intervention’ to be solved

However there is a heart that beats

This is true love is what it repeats

You fall for it and screw great things

You hope for brand new beginnings

Some get lucky and last the distance

You believe you are one of them

The journey begins like any other

Few things to worry or bother

But it was friendship that was meant to be

Destiny will settle scores with thee

Things change when friends fall in love

You lose a friend when you gain love

This heart is very fragile you see

When love breaks it, a friend is what you need

You regret having changed the equation

You badly want to mend the situation

But cracks are inevitable in a broken mirror

Do think twice before changing gears

Friends are few and forever there

Value them, cherish them and take care

Love will tempt you and make you prey

And force you to lose focus and stray

Phases in friendship come and go

Do not disturb this relationship’s flow

Cuz awesome friends are rare and few

Don’t let love screw them for you!
