I can't believe
What happened today
It's like being punched
In the gut
By a wrecking ball
We met when life
Was at its worst
For us both
Illness was our
Constant companion
And then we found each other
Seeing things through
Thick and thin
Near the end
Death's door
I thought we could
Take on anything together
Even called you my sister
I was wrong
You dropped me
Disconnected
Left me behind
Ran away from me
Over an opinion
My G-d what has this world turned to?
Why am I not allowed to have
My own thought process
That differs from yours
Or maybe it doesn't
But you never knew that
Because you never stuck
Around long enough to
Understand
I am completely and utterly
Heartbroken
I've lost my sister
Non-blooded kin
And for what?
I spoke with many
People today that
Also don't agree with me
Opinion wise
But unlike you
They actually understood
Where I was coming from
We agreed to disagree
We had/have enough respect
For one another not to let this
Ruin our friendship
And that your actions
Were shocking
And uncalled for
That perhaps someday
You will realize
What you have done
And come back
But I thought to myself
Even when I do forgive you
When this shock wears off
When the heartbroken feeling goes away
Do I want someone like you
In my life again
You've showed your hand
That if I don't agree
With you and without hearing my side
You will ditch me
Once again for what you
Think is the greater good
When in reality it's painful injustice
That's just not good enough
I refuse to judge people
I feel like I earned your respect
As you did mine
But now you lost it along with trust
And those are the hardest things in the world
To regain
If at all
I wished you to go in peace and with G-d
I still do
No matter how much this hurts
How heartbroken I am
May peace be with you always
