Goodbye My Friend

(wrote this in high school, next two this friend of mine who changed a lot)

Thinking about you makes me sad,
To remember all the fun days we've had,
Look in the mirror and see how much you've changed,
Since then my life has been rearranged,
Our friendship is withering like a separating rope,
Looking at you causes me to loose hope.

There was a time when you listened to me,
Now the only one you listen to is she,
I miss those days when my heart would beat faster and faster,
When to slow it down was hard to master,
You smile at me with sadness in your eyes,
It hurts so much; I'd rather gaze at the skies.

I could care less nowadays,
I can feel all the painful heat from the sun's many rays,
So I shall finally let you go,
One of the hardest things to do; you should know,
Good-bye; I'll fly away like a long lost dove,
To never again see the man I used to love.
