Another haiku, I guess I'm getting to like them. :)

That is a very sad haiku! I mean the subject matter, by the way, not the quality!!

Yes, I suppose it is. Sometimes maybe a friendship isn't what we think it is, or it's more than the other person can handle or wants... it's hard to know.

So, what do you think of the quality? ^^;

Always look on the bright side... there's more light there and it's easier to find stuff.

I am no expert on haiku but it looks fine to me. The fact that 'meets with air', although a follow on from 'Hand extended in friendship', falls on a different line is a great thing. This because it heightens the disappointment. Reading the first two lines you think - o, a happy little poem about friendship, and then wham! it all comes to nothing. So I think it works well.

This one is very meaningful to me. So many times you think you know someone and they seem like a great friend, and then as soon as you need them to really be a friend, they're gone. Very well expressed. =)
