Let me start all over again

Let me start all over again, my life; let me rewind,
Let it be the same day like yesterday, that I had in the test of time gone by.

Let me start all over again, when the smiles were true to the heart,
And when voices spoke of the heart's desire, hoping the day would start.

Let me hear closely for my friend's call, when even at a distance; I would find you close,
When it never mattered what we defined we are, just that it's friendship that we chose.

Let me start all over again, when I know my friend was listening back,
I keep looking for her in shadows now, in the many things that I somehow lack.

Let me start with the same faces I knew, the ones I recognized,
The time when in the test of faith, you were always too special to be kept aside.




Broken Flowers by Mindy McGregor

Let me start all over again, with the warm hugs that made my day,
With the faces I knew so well, and the smile that lit my way.

Let me start all over again, when I know you were listening and not simply hearing me out,
When things would always come back to us, our feelings like things there were "lost and found".

Let me start all over again, in the undying hope that I will regain some time,
And you will find what you believed was yours and what I thought was mine.

Let me start all over again, when we made promises to the heart and kept it through,
When the times we couldn't work things out, you were right there, as I was with you.

Let me start all over again hoping today is unending, and we will keep coming back in time,
I will keep hoping for things that remain endless and yet so true, their beauty sublime.

Let me start all over again, when you were listening back, when you read what I wrote; and you cared,
When I could still find a meaning to the things I did every single day, and for every word I shared.

To Friends and Friendships alike


To the many faces, I call my friends,
To unchanging truths, to promises with no ends.

To some coffee cups and tastes in life, some things I could not keep,
To the many talks and fights that lie incomplete somehow still

To some birthday wishes and hugs alike far better than presents tonight,
When all I could wish for is a conversation sometimes, or a reason just to fight

To some broken dreams & hearts tonight, I wish I could fix it too,
I sit endlessly with the pieces still; I wish I could find right glue.

To some treats and foods that you cooked, the ones you thought I liked,
To some silent wishes before I ate then still, hoping I would survive.

To truths and dares and many a games alike, things I would tell you anyways,
The games and cheers and boards are gone, but the feeling seems here to stay.

I look back today and you and me, and how "we" have seemed to change,
And if the world around us seems all but lost, just think it has rearranged

To many a times I stare at the screen, hoping someday you would call,
And hoping you would pick me up, whenever I would fall.

To different worlds and chances still, hoping to grab some time,
Wishing even if everything was lost, at least this friend is mine.

To many a complains that you never call, feeling you don't even care,
Just know I was watching your back, and hoping you were right there.

And the times have changed, and I get cups of coffee still today,
I feel the world beyond me has changed this time, just every single way

To the friend I keep so dear, to the breath I feel so mine,
We might drift apart someday, but our friendship is endless in time

Some will wish you just this day and hope you will understand,
That you are more than a world to me; to me you are everything my friend.
