The Promise

You said that you'd be there,
You said that you cared.
You said we were best friends;
For you my life I'd have spared.

And for years it was so,
'Till one in your life
Drove us apart,
Her fear causing strife.

So now I lay crying
Alone on my bed,
Regretting profusely
If it was something I said.

Seven years we were best friends,
But where your independence is sparse,
Our friendship dissolved, but
Your comments only made it more harsh.
