My dear ex-best friend,

I don't know where to begin

Your story's far too long

But I'll try my best

 

I'm sure you remember

The day we first met

Hit it off with each other

Then hung out at recess

Skipped side by side

As partners in crime

Had too many playdates

Where we'd get lost in time

 

But my heart was still young

When you started calling me dumb

You sneered at what I wore

And how I would respond

I shouldn't have listened

Back then I was so innocent

Never had a glimpse

At the world's ugliness

 

So I started believing

Thinking I was wrong

I knew this couldn't be right and yet

We carried on

Until you lost your patience

Lashed out one day

Wrote that I was a b*tch

Not even to my face

 

My friends, they're still enraged

Yet strangely I have forgiven

Recording it into my life story

Though I still sense your silent stare

 

As the sun rises over the valley

I look up and laugh to the sky

Your friendship may have ended

But everything else is just

Beginning.
