Dear Stranger

Dear Stranger,
I guess we should be friends
because if we don't speak now, we'll only meet again.  And with you living as close as this, just across the street,  it makes sense that we be friends, it makes sense that we should speak.

Dear New Friend,
I'm glad that you moved in
because when she moved away, I needed a new friend.  If you want you can sleep over, or we could hang out at your house, maybe we could later or maybe just right now.

Dear Closest Friend of Mine,
I always needed this,
someone to have fun and also be bored with.  We can tell each other secrets and do whatever everyday and be confident that the other friend will never go away.

Dear Friend I Fear I've Lost,
It just was not my fault,
and it's not the silent treatment, we just haven't talked at all.
And I didn't know the outcome when I told a different friend,  but now its very clear that we may never speak again.

Dear Stranger,
I remember all those summers,
and I remember all those days.  I remember when we thought that it would never go away.  I remember hanging out and doing stupid stuff.  And I remember when it stopped, so I'll assume we'd had enough.

    i really loved how you rounded this out. there were a few lines that didn't make sense to me, but sometimes that is to be expected from a personal poem.
    good write =)
