I Remember

I remember the day I first met you
On that August afternoon long, long ago
But I think of you as you stand today
And I just want to choke

I remember the night I first talked to you
For hours and hours over the phone
But now when I try to reach out to you
All that happens is I get ignored

I remember when I graduated high school
You gave me a hug oh so tight
But now that I'm back from college
You won't even answer the door

I remember when you told me you loved me
Those words I returned to you in tears
But then that all went away
"We'll always be friends" you did sneer

I remember when you told me you missed me
Over the phone in my dorm
I told you I looked forward to that day
But when I returned you ignored me

I remember you said you'd always be there
So many times to me
But now and today I doubt that
I miss my best friend.
