Broken Friendship

Flashing, flaring, agonizing pain coursed through my body.
I never thought that it would be such a calamity.

It hurt so bad but so strangely, the pain that you caused me.
I never thought that a friend like you’d put me in misery.

I was naive to think our friendship would forever last.
I never expected the end of us would come to pass.

We used to talk after midnight and laugh together.
Those moments were memories, but I’ll remember.

I let you go and no longer mourn our broken past.
I think of us, at times, and of the things I never asked.

Why did you leave, my friend, and what made you hate me so?
Was I not a good companion; now I’ll never know.

We probably grew apart, and it was just a natural thing,
’cause you didn’t seem to think something important went missing.

I’m just a goner in your life, always and forever.
I don’t think that I’m that someone you’d remember.

You will live your life, and I will live mine, separately.
We might cross paths someday, and I’ll be fine, eventually.

I’m such an unfortunate soul who lost her best friends, time and again. Or is it just life, a natural thing?
