Is it time?

Is it time to move on?

Is it time to push away all the memories we had,

all the laughters we shared,

all the smiles we exchanged.

Is it time to move on?

Is it time to stop caring,

loving,

hurting,

worrying.

Is it time to let you drift away from me?

You were my other half,

my best friend.

You were the easiest to talk too,

Question is,

Who do I have now?

All of that vanished,

All because of one thing,

Love.

I never meant for you to fall in love with me,

I never meant to leave you damaged,

I never meant to end like this,

I never meant any of this.

Saying goodbye

Broke my heart

and it probably broke yours too.

But

It was time..

You put so much on me

that it broke me

It got to the point where I couldn’t handle  it

I don’t know,

How I handled it for the past 6 months

but I did.

I kept myself strong,

and wore a smile on my face everyday.

While every night

I listened to you

I listened to your feelings,

I listened to your past,

I listened to everything..

that I thought I could handle.

I told you,

You had a special place in my heart,

but you refused

and told me you want no part in me.

That broke me inside.

How could you sit there and tell me where you belong?

How could you tell me that no cares?

How could you tell me that you're useless?

How could you tell me you're not good enough?

How could you tell me I was wrong?

How could you tell me that I don’t understand?

Theres many things you don’t know about yourself.

Theres many things you don’t know about me either.

I loved,

and cared for you.

No matter what happened today..

I still do.

And you still carry a special place

in my heart.

Here’s a goodbye to all the memories,

Goodbye to all the laughter,

Goodbye to the all the smiles,

Goodbye to my best friend,

Goodbye to all my happiness,

Goodbye to all my love,

Goodbye to all my tears,

Goodbye to me.

Hello to the dark,

Hello to the shadows,

Hello to the screams,

Hello to the new me.

Author's Note

Sometimes it can be really hard losing a best friend, losing someone that meant a lot to you. Of course they don't know that. Its hard knowing you won't have those long deep conversations with that person anymore. Its hard to let go. Its hard to know you both have went through a lot, its hard to know we both fought a war between ourselves and everyone else around us. Looks like we both lost and we both lost each other too. If your reading this I just hope you know I'm still here for you no matter what.
Well I hope you guys enjoy this, I hope to hear a few reviews into how this turned out. Thanks guys:)

I like this piece because of how it relates to so many people. However, some advice:

Attachment leads to suffering. Most people live life painfully in hopes of coming to some idealistic point in their life in which everything will be okay, but the reality of the matter is far from that. Life is a mix of colors, of feelings, and waves of emotion. You can only take each moment as it comes at you.

The special thing about right now, is that now is the moment in which your decision will become the past and the future. Now makes yesterday and tomorrow. So savor each moment. You can never be content with the world until you're content with yourself.

Would you rather feel great pain and great happiness....or nothing at all?

I had an experience like this with my best friend... She lied to me for 6 months and then told me that she had a boyfriend for the past 6 months... that really hurted inside and since then I haven't been the same..

Sad and powerful words. A lot of emotion in the words.
"Hello to the dark,
Hello to the shadows,
Hello to the screams,
Hello to the new me. "
Every hello and goodbye will change us. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

Distancing yourself from someone is so hard. It makes you feel like the bad guy. I'm so sorry that you have to go through this. Please don't let him take away your happiness, okay? I know it's so hard losing someone, especially someone that you deeply cared about. You're an amazing writer, this poem is beautiful. If you need to talk, the messaging offer still holds. =)

Thanks for sharing and b-blessed!

Losing best friends can indeed be tough. Sometimes they are the only ones who can truly understand. I do love your poem. It is quite beautiful and sad. It's almost as though the person has lost so much hope and just wants to give in to the darkness and evils around herself/himself. Wonderful job, my friend.
