Friends Come and Go

Friends come and go.

Best friends since kindergarten.

Torn apart in the ninth grade.

She ghosted me

Never spoke to me

No communication anymore

No more sleepovers

No more binge watching Netflix

No more sending funny memes

No more making silly “dance videos”

Why would she leave?

Why doesn’t she want to be my friend anymore?

She grew faster than me

Matured before me

Risked life more than me

It was all because she wanted to party

To get drunk

To meet new people

To no longer be my bestie

I wasn’t ready yet

To let her go

My best friend

Desperate to gain my friend back.

I asked her.

Why?

She laughed at me with her new friends and vanished into the highschool cafeteria.

I understood now.

People grow.

Grow into different directions.

Maybe she wasn’t suppose to be my BFF (Best friend forever)

Maybe this was suppose to happen.

Maybe it was a sign.

I enjoyed our friendship.

As you grow, you also grow out of people.

Away from people.

I understand now,

I shouldn’t expect so much from others.

Not everyone is going to be your friend forever

Sometimes people are meant to be your friend for a certain amount of time

Then they leave after they've taught you everything that was needed to be taught

Sometimes you just end up losing a good friend

Because friends come and go.
