This poem is about your friend kind of moving on, and it's a TRUE STORY. Ill probably start crying while I write this, she meant so much to me.

**

Whenever I called

You would pick up on the first ring.

Now, silence fills the air

As I hear,"She can't pick up at this time".

Smiles so bright

Filled with enthusiasm

Now, I'm lucky just to get a

Glance.

Your sister and brother

Were like my own.

Now, I doubt they remember my

Name.

What we used to be

Is what I long to be now.

Why did you have to leave?

I used to feel safe

When you would protect me

Now all I feel

Is pain in my soul.

You used to wipe my tears

And tell me it would be ok

Now my tears are free falling

Without you here.

Not only did you help me

And get me far in life,

You moved on,

And left me with the pain of a knife.

And I do see you in the hallway,

Once or twice,

But you never give me a grin

Like you used to.

And you say it's my fault

That everything fell apart.

You say "You ruined us"

And that's when the tears started.

Oh, how I wish you would say

"I forgive you".

But what did I do in the first place?

I guess we will never be

Like we used to.
