Analysis of Uncertainly
A friend from afar
For my love is a tornado in a jar
A love real bizarre
Just enough to travel far.
My darling, my dear
A friend filled with sheer
In the shadows I stand here
Comes a single light; shines clear.
To a friend from afar
Though it left me with a deeper scar
Gradually healing, not just once
As I sing another chorus with this guitar.
A friend from afar
I may not be the best
Out of all the people in this world
I would like to ask once again
Will you be my special guest?

About this poem
I wrote this poem for someone who filled me with so much joy and pain. Now that she's away, I'm left with the memories we've made together and a friendship no one can replace. The memories I can't see with someone else in the future. It's been months with no contact, but it's you that I will miss. It's nice to meet you, and I can't wait to see you again soon.
