for him

We used to laugh and tell gossip

And keep promises to ourselves

We'd go through boxes of tissues

And talk about issues

Those times we'll never forget

You were all I had,

My best friend

You said you'd always be there

And at that time you were

But when you changed, 

I stayed the same

I thought I always knew you,

But I must have been wrong

Because I thought you were my other half

Like the two of us belonged.

But I knew the time would come

When we didn't think the same

And as that time came,

All our friendship went down the drain.

With all the fun times and the sad,

Along with gossip and and promises, too

One thing was always set in stone

That was me and you

The times you crawled out your window and came into mine

Sneaking through slightly cracked doors all  the time

When we would sit on my bed,

And talk through the night

The best friend I knew all too well,

He was you

My family might not have been there,

But I knew that you would be

And now,

All I can think

Is that you were only there to me

Now I know, 

And now I see

I never understood reality

Here is just like there

It's almost the exact same

And now I see the difference

There you were with me,

And here you are not

It was really hard

But only for me

And for the first time,

I was in a world without you with me

I was told, 

"It will be okay, my dear."

But I knew it never would, 

So I said No

I wouldn't accept a world without you

And I didn't 

Now,

Neither of us are here
