See my poem “Appreciate You” first for some background to this. I wrote it about nine weeks ago.

——————————————————

I’ve never had a lifelong friend

One that’s with me

Til the end

They always come and go

That’s what happens

When you move, can’t grow

I thought she’d be by my side

Forever, as long as that may be

But here we aren’t, and I can’t hide

She was always there for me

Until she wasn’t

Disappeared into the deadly sea

We talked every day

And now?

There’s nothing more to say

I respect her decisions

But I feel broken now

My heart has incisions

Who do I go to when I need to talk

Because she’s gone

Now I’m alone as I walk

She was best friend

And I don’t think we’ll make it

To the very end
