Forever Friendship

I don’t care about tomorrow; I’ve given up on yesterday.
Today is all that matters; we can’t let these memories drift away.
Should I quietly sit back and watch you leave out my door?
Or maybe pretend like it was, the way things were once before?
I am not afraid to look into the past.
But what scares me now: we are growing up so fast.
If only I had the courage to call out your name.
Would the choices we’ve made still be the same?
We should stand together to see through it all.
Cling on to what we have now and never let it fall.
There’ll be some days when everything will go wrong.
But your friends will always be here in the places friends belong.
The days I knew were coming that I have to say goodbye.
The days I’ve not yet understood and ask the question “why?”
Why we have to leave, go our separate ways?
For the time will lengthen: and our visits will wait days.
Why have we made it through both the good and the bad?
Why don’t we remember all those harsh fights that we’ve had?
It’s all because of this that we are still good friends.
We will always be this until forever friendship ends.
“I’ll love you forever, I promise you this..
But you have to remember to never let go.”
