Friends No Longer Here

I was staring into nothingness
Out of a rain splashed window
With a heavy burden upon my heart.

With a sigh
I think of
Friends no longer near.

How much I miss them,
All of them so dear.

Then, as two raindrops
Race down the glass
They hold my attention
Until they disappear

Those two rain drops
as fleeting as they were
taught me a lesson.

Friendships come and go
And,
Instead of missing you all
should be grateful you were ever here
