Sincerely Yours

Written about my old childhood friend, and our failed friendship. I wish I could show her the pain she caused me. I know she could care less, but it would be closure enough for me.

We were inseparable

quite the goofy pair

two different kids

who couldn't compare.

You were there for me

in my times of need

We'd talk for hours

my worries were be freed.

In my darkest hour

you were there holding on..

but today I'm asking myself

"Where has she gone?"

Did I burden you too far?

Was it just too much?

I'm really sorry

for my depression and such.

I should have kept some things

hidden deep within me..

I should have held it in,

shouldn't have let you see.

I could go on for a while

blaming myself of our troubles

but I wasn't the only one

who caused our friendship to crumble.

In the years after her passing

you were the one I trusted most..

Didn't expect a betrayal from you

at such a lethal dose.

Just wanted you to know I've cried..

cried twice within a years time..

I cry over the simple things,

even while writing this rhyme.

I know you don't have the patience

to sit and read all of this poetry

I just wish you could look into my eyes

at all this pain you caused me.

You'll never read this and that's okay

I know we'll never be friends again,

and that's alright, I must say..

I'm done trying to be a friend.

So it is here I will say goodbye,

it's time to shut all the doors..

My old friend, till next time

I bid you farewell. Sincerely yours.

Author's Note

Nothing too special, here. Just getting some pent up emotion out onto paper. Had a good cry on the way home from visiting my family today and couldn't write it out then. It's currently 4:13AM and I had the urge to get it out, finally. So here it is..
