Happy Birthday To A Former Friend

Former friend, I remember that today Is your beautiful birthday But I am not going to call you Because you never answered my calls Life is made of ups, downs and falls Sometimes, the sky is gray, white and blue I understand that things change And nothing stays the same I’m fine. I’m not the one to blame I’ll pray for you in exchange In fine, I won’t call you anymore From afar, I wish you many birthdays And the best in everything. The best days Are usually ahead of us. No need to bore Our readers. I’m moving on too with my life The sky is at times gray, white and blue Don’t worry. I stopped calling you too Dear ex-friend, I no longer need to hear your fife I have realized that you were a fake friend Not a real one. You are now a cent in the sand.
