Madelyn....


Oh, Madelyn the girl that sits right beside me during my second period. The girl that kept me warm when nights were cold. She put her head on my shoulder and hugged me even though she knew I was bored and tired of the world. I knew she always had my back and stood up for me even though we both know I'm always wrong and this proves it as I thought we'd be together forever. Oh, Madelyn I can't believe who've you created you made me the person I hated, even though you're still everything I hope you still mourn for me. Our friendship slowly floats away like balloons in the air never to be seen again and that are probably floating around in space. I'll take the blame about everything that went down but sometimes I'll see the moon and I'll think of you. No one has ever come close to being like you and I don't think anyone will, I have a small feeling you got everything you've wanted and you're not wasting time being stuck here thinking about ways we can come back to each other just like me. I think you think this is a small thing that happened, but it truly felt like the world ended for me...
