STORY STARTER
Write a story about the end of an era between friends.
What part of their lives is ending, and how are they feeling about it?
Letting Goš
Letting go of bonds
Like yours and mine
I am your teddy bear
That now youāve outgrown
The days we spent together
Are now like a fallen rose petal
Laying there the sidewalk
How could you forget those precious days?
How could you forget all the
Talking we did about our woes?
The countless we spend together?
Leaning on each others shoulders?
All the excitement when we saw each other?
How could I still possess those days in my heart?
And still think of them often?
When youāve become a treacherous devil?
And Iām just a dead bug on the sidewalk
Donāt you ever miss those days?
That werenāt full of broken bonds?
When you never had to be anyone else?
When you felt true love?
When I was by your side?
Because now Iām just laying on your bed
Barely touched or looked at
Your door only opens
When someone nudges you
But it never swings all the way open
Like before times
How could our bond just break?
How could you just choose to disappear?
When you could still be there?
I hate to say this, but I think I know why
Youāve gone on the wrong path
You chose all the pretty make up
And the fake cover ups
That led to a demonizing road
Well farewell my old friend,
Because Until the girl
Who loved happiness, laughter and empathy
Returns home
I will no longer hold your hand
