Letting Go(goodbye to a friend)

by Jewels   Jul 5, 2004


There were times we laughed and said we cared. There were times we cried because we were scared. There are nights I'll never forget, with all the promises that we made. Friends until the end thats what we once said, it was what I believed. I only saw what I wanted to see, and heard what I wanted to hear. I couldn't face reality or the truth. I wish I could believe everything we did have was true and the feelings were real.

Through hell and back we've been time and time again. I've always been there for you ever since I can remember ...In every way I knew how to be, with every last bit of power I had to give. I thought it was enough to be your friend, I thought it was enough for you to trust me, and to tell the truth. I thought it was enough for you to actually give a damn. I could not have been more wrong about everything.

The reality of it all has finally hit,and it's tearing me apart. The person I thought you once were was an just an illusion created in my my mind, all this time all these lies.The person I thought you were was never really there to begin with. Time and again I've tried see the good within, every time I have found that there was nothing. Your soul is poisoned, ravaged beyond repair.

I know I have to let go of you and what I thought we once had, if I don't you will destroy anything good thats left within, any ounce of life I still posess. Its not something I truly want to do, and I hope one day you can understand why I did this. Tears come softly to my eyes as I write these last words to you, my final tribute ...letting go of this friendship once and for all, and everything that I thought we had, will be one of the hardest things I'll ever have to do...now and for always.....

*goodbye*
