Best Friend’s Forever... Right?

Together we laughed

Together we cried

We grew up in a world of pinky promises

And happy dreams

You were my best friend forever

Nothing was boring with you by my side

Endless games and movies

Secret sharing under the stars

A childhood of ups and downs

The only constant being you

You were my best friend forever

Fights broke out frequently

But always ended with us dying of laughter on the floor

I could never stay mad at you

Driver's licenses and first kisses

Sleepovers that always included makeovers

You were my best friend forever

Tears shared late at night

As I told you about my depression

You said you would always be with me

You would stay until the day I died

But childish promises never could last

Isn't that right my best friend forever?

We couldn't bridge the gap between us

Something told me you didn't want to

Soon laughing turned to anger

And that never ended well

Saying things we would regret but never take back

I can hardly recognize my best friend forever

It was never the same

Soon we drifted apart

I still remember those nights fondly

Now all that is left is broken dreams and stolen secrets

No longer best friend's forever
