My Best Friend

Well it all started when I was 15,
Times were really tough for a while,
But them I met the girl of my dreams,
And for once I was able to smile,

1 year had passed and all was grand,
There were times when we would fight,
But all we needed was the others hand,
With that piece of love, all was right,

2 years had passed and all was well,
Things were even better than before,
We were there for each other when they fell,
The only problem was we wanted more,

3 years had passed but things werent the same,
It was time to go to university now,
We knew then that we'd start passing the blame,
Because we knew that we'd leave and take a bow,

At first we both tried to ignore it,
We spent the summer months worried,
It was clear that something didnt fit,
But we forgot about it and didnt act hurried,

We took our time and hope things got better,
We slipped further apart but the love was still there,
She said that she had to go and i should let her,
I cried and pleaded and said it wasn't fair,

Now I sit at home at night and wonder where she is,
And I wonder if shes sitting at night thinking of me,
I know i shouldnt but every night im in a tizz,
Thinking about all the things I wanted us to be,

Its hard to say I've also lost my best friend,
The silence is lonely and brings bleakness,
I cannot wait until I'm finally on the mend,
I know that I dont want to spend my life like this,

awe I'm sorry. But this is a really good piece of writing

this poem is very touching and sad. it is never nice to loose someone, especially when you love them. i went through a similar problem with one of my best friends. we talked all the time, we never went a day without having a conversation or two, and he told me that he dint know what he would do without me and said he would always be there for me. but then, one day, he stopped. i guessed he realized it would never work, he was going to join the marines, and i was going into the navy. i still talk to his brother about it, but he still refuses to speak to me. i may never know the real reason why. i hope things change for you and your friend.

She was my girlfriend if 3 years and a best friend of 7 years, but she left me so i dont see it ever working out, thank you for your review and im sorry to hear about your situation, people sometimes dont realise how much they affect others, but i just goes to show we're good honest people to care about them as much as we do! I hope things get better for you too!
