Once

We were once close,

We laughed and joked

Told each other secrets

And  were together every day we woke.

 .

What happened to it?

The good times that we used to have.

All the fun and laughs

You were like my other half.

 .

My best friend

For many long years

Left me that day

To go with her other peers.

 .

I stayed behind.

Lonely and sad.

What had I done

That was so bad?

 .

Yet I still waited

For you to return

Then you moved away,

Our friendship left to burn

 .

You said you didn't care.

Not one bit

Yet every mean word you said,

I forgave it.

 .

I forgave you

Even when you left me

I still waited

As I always would be.

 .

Then one day,

You came back to visit.

I thought I'd finally see you

I thought we could fix it.

 .

You ignored me completely

Stayed with someone else.

Not even a hello you said,

Just a "Stay away or else."

 .

You called me pathetic,

Horrid, Weak.

You were my best friend,

How could you do this to me?

 .

You said you had better things to do

Than see me

Your once best friend

That you ditched with glee.

 .

One day I thought you were coming around.

You asked to go to the movies

So I agreed, only for you to ditch,

And go with someone other than me.

 .

Then you left once more,

Without a word.

No hello or goodbye,

And it hurt.

 .

It really hurts you know,

To know you weren't good enough,

For even your once best friend to even drop by,

To ditch you from there of.

 .

To be called all those names

By your once best friend

Someone once so close,

What happened  to "'til the end?"
