Friendship Lost

I was always by your side. I cheered you on when your goals were met. I gave wholeheartedly to your successes.

We shared so much together. We loved the same books. We listened to the same music. You showed me yours and I showed you mine. We watched movies all curled up on the couch.

Now how did this happen? All my secrets have escaped. I am exposed; the whole world can see. There were things that no one else knew, except you.

Why would you do this? I don't understand? You are cold and avoid me at every turn.

I see you with the other girls, those girls that shot me down. You giggle and laugh like lifelong friends. What has happened?

I look back at all we had together. Late nights, karaoke battles, writing our play... Was it all a lie? Did you actually enjoy when you would rock out to my songs? Would you actually read the books I got you? When you said "I love you", did you mean it?
