Not Everything Lasts Forever, Just Some Things

We were best friends for three years,

from second grade to fourth.

I always thought she would be my best friend forever,

but I guess I wasn't good enough.

I tried to make her happy when she was sad,

and she did the same.

But then one day she stopped trying,

"I don't like you that much anymore."

That's the message I got.

All I did was stare at  that message,

crying, thinking,

"What did I ever do?" 

School came, fifth grade. 

I was all alone,

with no one by myside.

When I looked at her,

all I wanted to do was cry.

"I have no one at all." Thinking to myself.

A month or two passed,

still alone.

In class we changed seats,

a girl moved by me,

a girl just like me,

shy.

Weeks passed, 

she was my friend,

someone I hoped I would never lose.

We became best friends with another girl,

"Everything is alright now." 

I thought.

And it was. 

She asked for forgiveness,

but i could never forgive someone that broke my heart?

But now i'm a lot more happier with my new best friends,

knowing they'll never leave my side or turn their back on me. 

The bestest friendships last forever,

and this one did.
