Briana

I could say, it's been a long road
We known each other for so long
I truly thought, we were gone to grow old together, like you said
But u left this earth much to soon

I remember in high school, it was just me and you
And people thought how could we be friends
You was different in your own way
You was white and I was black
And no matter what, I always had your back

You became family, and i saw u as my sister
And both of us became good mothers
You moved out of Houston, But we always stay in touch
We had our problem, but what family don't
I Love You 

Just to let u know, you touched my heart
And you are still my best friend
You are always in my thoughts
Fifteen years and climbing
Good bye, Briana
