Meet Me on the bench


Meet me at the bench tomorrow. I have something to tell you. Would you meet me if I said that if was something? would you meet if it was nothing?

Or have you left, just like the others?

We used to meet there every day, and now I hardly ever see you. I feel as if I've been written out of your story. I used to be your friend. No I sit and hope and wonder if you;ll even try to hear me.

I'd wait for you Liz, but where is the bench?

Hi David,
I think you are on it. :)
Thank you for waiting. :)

I'll meet you there. I'm kinda around most of the time, just lurking doing nothing useful anyway. ;)

Ah, Dsnake,
Close friends don't need to talk. It's enough to be together. :)

Hi bluesky,
It's so lovely to know you're around. Everyone needs a friend in their corner. :)

Ouch!

(Really, the first thing that came to mind when I read this: ouch!)

We can become so busy, so involved with our own thoughts, aims, goals etc, we forget some friends or 'habits' others think are/were the most important 'habits' for them. And we left them 'waiting' until we remind ourselves of the pleasure we ourselves received from those simple 'habits'.

Thanks for the reminder Liz

You know what is the worst... When you are sitting there with someone and it still feels like your alone. The other side to this would be hanging with someone that you haven't seen in years and you can just pick up where ever you left off.... That one is the best!

Have a nice day Liz!

Hi Lucid,
Oh an unwanted silence can be so loud and so unfriendly. It's almost painful to bear. But a reunion with an old friend is everything you describe.

Thanks, Have a great day yourself!
