Why is it that I’ve felt this way for so long?
So confused, empty, and torn.
I ask myself this question everyday
But can anyone answer it?
Everyday that passes, no one answers
And my heart gets torn bit by bit.

As the internal sobs get harder and harder to hold back
I begin to wonder why the sky above me is turning black
And now I see it’s because of my emotions I hold in so well that my body refuses to let out.

I feel like I am being walked on
Or trapped in a room
The walls are closing in… I can’t breathe
Everywhere I turn there are endless amounts of wall
All I can do now is cry
Oh my God… There is no way out!

I want to tell you a friendship is not one sided
There are two people’s feelings at stake
I don’t know if you know exactly how much pain you have caused me
Next to you I just feel worthless, like nothing else matters except you.

As I write this I feel my tears streaming down my face
I feel this poem is for you who I called “my best friend”
I used to say those words with such meaning and grace.

You see that’s why I am crying inside and out
I thought I could beat the odds and hide my pain
I thought you and I both already knew what friendship was about.

“Friends until the end” is what we used to say
Now, I know this will be hard for you
When I say this it is all coming from the heart and is very true
I know if I don’t leave now my heart will crumble even more.

The end is very near
Closer than you might think
And now I say good-bye
I know you want me to look back
But if I do I will cry
Then I’ll want to come running back like I always do
So please try to understand that I can no longer be your friend.

Life is a gift so live it to the fullest!
