Prompt 198: Knight

Thanks to Amity of Dreams are my Reality for this week's post, knight. Here is her poem:



Beloved covert knight
Drifting away so sadly
You are my dear friend.
~*~*~*~

I thought that I knew you
But now I'm not sure

You used to be friendly
But not anymore

Each day we grow farther
Apart and I'm sad

We used to be best friends
The best I ever had.

At some point things changed
And our lives split apart

I wish it weren't us
I wish not this way.

~*~*~*~
