"Changes"

"Friend forever," you promised
"Together till the end."
We did everything with each other.
You were my best friend

When I was sad, you were by my side.
When I was scared, you felt my fear.
You were my best support-
If I needed you, you were there.
You were the greatest friend,
You always knew what to say;
You made everything seem better.
As long as we had each other, everything would be okay.

But somewhere along the line,
We slowly came apart.
I was here you were there,
It tore a hole in my heart
Things were changing,
Our cheerful music reversed its tune
It was like having food without water,
A sun without its moon

Suddenly we were miles apart,
Two different people with nothing the same.
It was as if we hadn't been friends;
Although we knew deep in our hearts
Neither one of us was to blame.

You had made new friends
And luckily, so had I
But that didn't change the hurt-
The distance between us made me cry

As we grow older, things must change
But they don't always have to end.
Even though it's different, now,
You will always be my best friend.
Till the end.
