Best Friends?
July 25, 2010
By Taylor Springs
We were very young
When I first met you
A friend so different
A friend so true
We both promised
Pinky swore
Forever
And then some more
I’ve learned a few things
Through the years
I’ve shared memories
And wasted tears
Best friends forever
Those words are whatever
I guess it was all pretend
When you promised, until the end
I tried so hard,
To keep you close
But you left
When I needed you the most
Slowly and after time
You had a new best friend
And I couldn’t really call you mine
I think that’s when, I started to cry
The end was coming
And we both knew it
Still full of stuff to ponder
And I can’t help but wonder
Was every word you said, a lie?
I tried to believe you, but now I ask why
Why’d you choose to say goodbye?
Wasn’t it worth it, just to try?
Never even saw you
Thought that would make us stronger
Little did I know
We were best friends no longer
I’ve lived with your lies
For much too long
I didn’t really choose
But I’m moving on
This is part, of the truth
I still hurt inside
And I think about you
All the time
We both said things we shouldn’t have
We chose different paths
Friendships broken
Trust denied
Don’t say it back
Because I know it’s a lie
But I love you
And goodbye
