Something new

Every day is an adventure
Made only for those prepared to explore
There are traps and tripping hazards
Placed on the path before you
If you walk without looking you  will surly fall

Each day is a battle
We all have our scars to show
They glow under the black light of our hearts
There to remind us that last time it was a mistake
This time won't be any different

Every day we run the risk
That a friend will turn their back on us
But those friends are easily replaced
Because after all
Why keep fake people around

Every day is an challenge
Filled with every day decisions
A new test every day
But at least we learn
It's a beautiful thing we do

Every day is an adventure
Full of battles
And risks
And challenges
But at least we have learned something new.

What happens when I go on a poem generator at 3am [Lover]

We were best friends
And I will tell you before this poem ends
Why I am happy now
So happy that... Meow
What was that all about
You're wondering what I'm on now no doubt

I wrote this poem already
The format was pretty steady
And the rhyme scheme was worse
But I killed it while changing a verse
So here I am again
Writing this time as if at a ten

But here's why I started
at one point we parted
And I missed my best friend
Worried that all we had, had come to an end
three months felt like forever
When we weren't together

I think it was healthier for us that way
What can I say
In that time we grew up a lot
Each with a love not easily bought
Seeing you again after all that time
Was worth the mountain I had to climb

And now our friendship has changed
We are no longer estranged
I can look in to your eyes
And time just flies
I guess it's time for this poem to end
I love you, my lover, and best friend

My forever friend

My best friend for three years
You always wanted to be with me
We finally took the plunge
Was it worth all the fighting
And the break up that crushed me
Is it worth the hate I feel growing some days
That is covered up by the love I feel for you
Is it worth my tears every time I think of you
A learning experience they call it
What did we learn?
That eventually all good things come to an end?
Because that's all I am getting from this.

When I said you ruined everything I wasn't being fair
We ruined everything
For example...
Cuddling you has forever been ruined
Hugging you will never be the same
The song I wrote about you makes me cry now...
All the I love yous feel like a lie.
And why?
Because we insisted on being more
We broke what was a perfect friendship
In the name what we called love
At the sake of our perfect friendship.

Whenever you smile at me now
It feels like a slap in the face
I retreat to a corner in my brain and cry
Scumbag brain says
"Look at that smile, it used to be just for you"
At some point I fell in love with you
I don't remember when it was
But I remembered to tell you everyday
I didn't want you to forget...
And now we're back to friends
So here's 1400 letters to you
My forever friend

We may have ruined everything.
But at least we ruined it together...
