A/N I wrote this poem for a best friend of 15 years that I just lost so whenever I see her in the hallways I end up running away and crying cuz I miss her ... The old her

Everything Dies
Flowers,
Trees,
Mammals,
Fish,
Birds,
Reptiles,
Lights,
Hopes and Aspirations,
Fire,
Excitement,
Ideas,
Trends,
Cultures,
Customs,
Love,
Friendship,
Not a single thing can hide from death.
No matter how hard you try.
To protect yourself and the people you care about.
Death is inevitable
I know cuz I fought...and lost
2 Friends, 1 promise
1 promise for 2 Friends
A promise to be sister's forever
From kids
To teens
To adults
They dreamed
Of always being together
Death felt
The fun
The happiness
The joy
The hope
They shared together
Death heard
The laughter
The jokes
The gossip
The playful teasing
The "I love you's "
When they talked
But what death saw
Was the lies
The Betrayal
The Fakeness
The drama
Where 1 sister was true and pure
The other was tainted and poisonous
And with one touch of death

The truest and pure sister
Did not only lose her sister, she lost her friend
She
Cried
And
Wept
For
Weeks
She missed the one friend who promised not to leave her
But soon she realized that her sister/friend had changed into her true form
Someone fake
Someone evil
Only then did the true sister see what death truly did, it wasn't to hurt her
..but to help her,before she too got tainted
She realized that their sisterhood was a lie that her old sister wore a mask of an angel to hide the demon inside and even though the sister didn't see it
Death did
And now the pure sister is happy
I know cuz I'm her
