Dear Ex Best Friend


Dear Ex Best Friend,

 

I thought we were fine

That nothing would break us

That we would stay and live forever

It happened so fast

Like a wave crashing down

We were fine on moment

Then gone the next

I tried so hard to bring you back

But your words cut my skin

Making me stand back

The day went by and I realized

That what I thought,

Was not true

You were always fake

A snake wrapped around my neck

Squeezing everytime I try to take a breath

Making me feel small and weak

I was wrong to trust this snake

So I let you go

And I could finally breathe

The sun smiled down on me

With promise of something better

And I know it's true.

Goodbye old friend

I will always remember you.
