Friends survive longer than lovers

I have warm friendships, dating back to my youth
that lead to occasional reunions
where memories, looked back upon
through a warm, sunshine filter of time
are laughed over as theyre relived.
Thereve been lovers as well,
who, in my solitary thoughts
evoke memories of joy and despair,
remaining forever locked in the past
remembered infrequently and differently by each.
So while friends enjoy a past that ages with them
former lovers share only stagnant moments
without a future to whittle down the sharp edges
nor humor to add the sunshine.
that allows friendship to outlast the love.

A sad truth, described by delicate words- this was painfully beautiful. It is doubly sad when a friend becomes a former lover and ends up just a distant memory. A very provocative write. Well done!
