Best Friend

She had a boyfriend 
And I had a girlfriend.
We was just good friends.
Chilling at football games.
My senior year it was not the 
same.
I was single and she was too.
She said she liked me and I said I 
like you.
But I had my mind on these other 
two.
I didn't know what to do.
I would tell her that I love her.
I did but I didn't want her.
I broke her heart some many 
times.
She always had me in her heart 
and mind.
Summer came along.
We look like we belong.
In August she went to the city, 
she was sick and I felt her pain.
The whole week I prayed.
In September we dated.
 A month later she faded.
29 was the day I lost my girl 
friend and my best friend.
She loved  my poems, she was my 
number one fan-Mario Perez

I hope you were still friends afterward. More will come and go, don't lose hope. Anyway, I hope you got what you needed to out, you spoke some strong words and it was exactly what you needed to say. Good poem, and best of luck.   -KMD
