Fissures Appear in Friendships

Whenever good things happen to me
Unprompted, spontaneous
And my face shows some kind of spark
With glitter in my otherwise quieter eyes
I find fissures appearing in many a friendship
Each piece with broken edges
Shouting disillusionment and regret
Seeking a promise to be wary & careful
But then, hope is the rope
I would like to keep hanging on.

( Written based on OSI prompt 'Fissures')

  6. Ultimately I guess fissures will appear in life. The question, or maybe measure of success, is how we close them or make them small.
