Written at a time in my life when my friends were leaving and I had to process a lot to realize that it wasn’t all my fault.
I thought I could count on someone like you/but you decided that life had other plans/that didn’t involve me anymore/so hard to let go of the times we had together/harder still to forget the times we shared/the memories of you and me helping each other/navigate the obstacles in this life together/
A friend once told me/there was nothing that I could do/to cause me to lose them/but life had a different lesson for me/I thought that something was wrong/with the way I spoke to them/only to realize that life sometimes is so cruel/a person I could trust with my secrets/a friend that was there for me/when my life was in the valley/
A friend stands up for what is right/but also is there for you/when you feel like you can’t stand anymore/hard for me to comprehend/that life sometimes gets in the way/and there’s nothing you can do/to change the way things shaped up/the guilt that I felt/because of feelings of betrayal/
I know that people aren’t perfect/and I am not trying to say I am better/but there are times that this life gets messy/and you could use a helping hand/or even just someone to listen/because this life is hard enough/trying to remember that I am not alone/even when my friends are no more/
