ReKindled

I am letting them slip away
Friendships I once had
And never thought would
        Go away.
 
Do they leave me,
Do I leave them,
Or do we fade
Not noticing until
       It's gone.
 
I miss those bonds
Tying us together,
Making us close.
 
How do we rekindle
        What was lost,
        What is weakened.
Can we start anew?
 
Or are we destined to drift
To never see again,
Those we once held dear,
Those we once called friends.

I have been writing poetry for the last 13 years. It all started as an assignment for a creative writing course. I never thought I would like writing, as I am dyslexic and language was always a struggle for me, but I fell in love with the art form in that class.
