I try my best
I can't do it all
I'm always there
To break your fall
Sometimes I miss
When you stumble
You not happy
Makes my world crumble
I entrust you with everything
My life, my heart
Now I feel
Like we're falling apart
I grasp so tightly
Hold on for dear life
And you can't even
Put up a fight
I don't deserve you
For you to be there
I let you down
Left in one's own despair.

This poem is for my best friend. We have recently moved away from each other and are getting more and more distance between us. I feel like I have let her down cuz I'm now there for every stumble but I;m always there for every fall.

This is a good poem. I know how you feel, and it's hard when friends move away from each other like that. I recently went through the same thing. Good luck.

I never thought that you would ever be the one to let me down. I guess that just goes to show how wrong I always am.

Well maybe you've moved away but the friendship is still there. I hope all turns out well.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Just remember that we're not perfect and that we can't be there for others all the time. We too have our own life to live. This should be a cause of an ending friendship. Maybe the 2 of you need to sit down and talk.
