My Bestfriend

My best friend please, tell me how can this be? How has time managed to make you a stranger to me? I already don't see you enough and it doesn't seem right, that when we are together we just pass like ships in the night. So.. My best friend please, youre starting to scare me. I can recognize you but still just barely. And I worry more and more as each day passes. Because it's not hard to see, no I don't need glasses, to tell you you're different and a little more distant. So what else can I say that I haven't yet mentioned. When I tell you I love you is it a waste of my breath? And when it comes to "forever" how many days are left, of you loving me always. I believe was your expression but it's those words now, that I hold in question. So my best friend, where are you going? Never mind, don't tell me. It's better not knowing. I'd rather just pretend like we don't have a problem. Even tho we both know that we do and it's starting to grow. Thru distance and time to our love has gone cold. So it's each day I wake up and start over again. Because it's each day I realize that I'm losing my best friend. So each day I try but it's hard to pretend, that the sun still shines and the world still spins. It's hard to face the truth that nothing is the same. And it's cold when you're alone, living life in the rain. But I make it somehow, only because I have to. I make it thru to the next, each day without you. And I'll continue to do so again and again. I'll make it thru til tomorrow, without my best friend.
