have you met someone
who coincides with your personality so well,
you'd think you're the same person?

the same person in two different bodies,
the same soul and feelings,
belief and fear.

have you met someone you shared so much with
but then again
nothing at all

for two years or ten years

this is a story, about losing a friend

but first of all,
here's the back story;

six years old, two little girls
who didn't quite fit in

they were bound together
by being complete opposites
the bully and the bullied
the weak and the strong

they grew up together
but apart
wouldn't talk for days
come crying in the middle of the night
to one another
or just tell each other a happy story

but friendships
need care and love
to grow
healthy and strong
and there was none

one of the little girls
grew older
grew stronger
left the nest
but was left behind
and tried not to turn back
oh so many times
but couldn't

now,
she's decided
she won't go back to a dark place
she won't put effort if she's not getting anything in return
because a heart can only pump so much blood
it will one day get tired
and eyes can only cry so many tears
one day they will dry

she tried
but it is no longer what it was

and well
the other six year old girl
she just left
careless and reckless
never looking back
never asking
never answering the endless phone calls

and what's sad, is that sometimes
overnight
the biggest friendships in the world
fade to nothing
in daylight
