Ode To A Friend

Jan 10, 2008 - 16:30 PM PST
Walking to school together
You’re by my side again
Laughing and joking
I couldn’t imagine a better friend

It’s ten past two
Your parents are fighting once more
I sit and stay up with you
Forever I’ll be your shoulder to cry on

I move tomorrow
We sit and look through old photos
Crying and smiling of our memories
You promise we will keep in touch

A year has past
Only a few phone calls were made
You come down to visit me
I feel as if I barely know you anymore

You write to me
I can’t believe how you’ve changed
We have nothing in common
I’ve lost my friend

I love the emotion in this.
Whoever you wrote it about obviously meant a lot to you.

Sadly, friends do grow apart. It sucks.
You share so much with one person and you think nothing can bust it apart, but something does. I don't think we ever truly get over not having those who impacted us so much just fall out of our lives.

There are only two people in my life out side of my family that I am very close to after 10 years or more of sharing a relationship.
Those people are my husband and my best friend and I'm lucky to have them.
