Losing a friend to refuse

Friendship will never be the same

To say yes would
Be an unknown
To tell the truth
I'd rather be your friend

Could we please
Start this relationship
Over again?

This is in desperate need of punctuation! The flow is ruined without it. I suggest reading this aloud to yourself and marking wherever you make pauses, then later on filling in the punctuation correctly and effectively.

Also, that first stanza isn't great. I think the poem would work better without it, actually. The second stanza is a better intro. And the second stanza happens to be the best one in my opinion.

Nice topic, I like it. But you need add some spice to make it a whole lot better. Something that makes me see this situation in whole different light, cause this has been out there already.

Will I be seeing more of you?

Hmmmm ... I don't know how I feel about this. Which is either a good or bad thing.

Before I read it, I thought I'd hate it.

While reading it, I thought I might like it.

After reading it, I thought nothing.

So, I would say edit more. Make me want to read it. Make me keep reading it. And, make me understand it!

I'm glad that, instead of going into a giant sonnet of self-pity about losing your friend, you kept the balance between the MC and their friend near mutual. You saved my eyes and brain from whining and whinging which are never welcome in poetry, unless it's for a good reason.

To say yes would

Be an unknown

Not too sure what you're trying to say here. I don't have any suggestions, because I very barely get it. Maybe you could express it differently, like saying that you don't know if you want to say yes (if that is what you mean)? You really lost me here.

Other than than, nice work!

Okay....ummm it had a nice flow to it I guess. You do need to edit it more though. Also the fact that it was basically something that happens a lot made it realistic and therefore made it good. I have to say that you seriously need to work on it more. Also it is in some serious need of punctuation like the first person to comment on this peice said. Well just keep working on it.

I LOVED IT.....

It has emotion. And it is not booring. I liked it truly.

The start though was a bit confusing.

Try working on it a little.
