Friendship Lost

I came to you the hour I was in pain
 Looking for answers, I cried to you in vain.

 I shared the many skeletons hiding in my heart,
 I knew then you'd be my friend,
 I knew it from the start.

 Troubles ran like rivers, flowing through my life,
 You picked the pieces up and help me through my strife.

 When home wasn't home to me no more,
 You opened up your heart, and opened up the door.
 
 As time flew, the air grew thick,
 I saw our friendship fading, and my heart grew sick.

 Now I sit alone,
 reminiscing the past I'd blown.

I'm reminded of one I wrote some years ago. "Brush Away The Tear" might be a good read. I think it was written just for you...... I send hugs and a friendly shoulder to cry on.... Jake

Contrary to what you may think, it isn't the end of the world. People have a te3ndency to reflect and reconsider, and even if that friendship never rekindles, you have the rest of your life to make new friends, and learning from your past mistakes will be able to keep them. I know. I've been there. Done that.
