The Missing Friend

Losing you was worse than heartbreak 

17 years, i cannot comprehend 

It hurt then and still does, while I mourn the loss of my soul sister
Your family is still my family, you refused to hear the truth,could have still turned it around

To say sorry, or even, "I'm happy I was mistaken" and I would have welcomed you back into my life

But you made that choice, a bad judgement call and refused to hear or accept the truth you didn't want,

True colours and character showed of a person I no longer recognised, I miss the you I knew
I lost a sister, a friend, an ally

And I still dont know which loss hurts the most.
