Don'T Understand Why

You hurt me so much when you said goodbye, I understood that you needed space, But when you said you weren't coming back, My own friend, it hurt so bad. We were almost sisters after the eight months. You lived with us and you also hurt us You made me cry for days after days, It was as if you always hated me like I think you did. When you fell, I lifted you up. When you were cold, I covered you. When you were homeless, I let you in. When you needed a shoulder, I was there. But when I fell, you let me fall. You left and I haven't heard from you since. I cried for minutes, hours, days, and even months And you haven't answered my fallen tears. We had an unfinished relationship. You hurt me when all I did was help. It feels like I was never whole again, You don't know what its like to have your heart ripped out. I sat there watching you pack. You were in tears, but you said nothing You wanted to leave without a goodbye, But you turned around and made it harder on both of us. We were best friends. You told me everything I know your secrets and I will take them to the grave, No matter how horrible it was that you did to my family. You know that I loved you as if you were really my sister. I knew you for my whole life, And you walked out of it. I'll try to forgive you, but it will take time.
