friends of mine

michael raven poems September 27, 2022 1 Minute

rearview mirror gazing
temptation to go back
and burn more than
a few bridges
with supposed
friends of mine
all just a waste of time

driving down
lonesome highways
so long now
to all those
friends of mine

Love the flow of this. Lyrical.

  If I’m honest, I’ll admit there is a very slight nod here to a band’s deep track, which might be the trigger for the lyrical feel.

Oh, I’ve been there! There are quite a few people who sucked far too much time from my life in the past, but I guess I learned something from those encounters. Maybe…

  One always has to wonder, doesn’t one? Like I said elsewhere, I’m a bit of a slow learner. 😊
