I was 2 and you were 3…when are friendship first came to be. We were just friends at first, always willing to help. Somehow it developed as we grew. Soon enough you were the only one I could tell everything to. The only one I trusted with my life… With my deepest darkest secrets, and dreams that I hoped would Come true. Soon I had turned 4 and you had become 5. We were still just best friends. I couldn't have imagined a day without your smile. Couldn't imagine…that I would lose you soon… That I would soon have to say goodbye not to you, but to. your grave. We shared a bond… I thought could never break. We had a love… I never did forsake. But never did I once think, that you weren't invincible… That you would…soon leave me alone in this world to survive on my own. I never really knew what was to come until the day that you told me that you loved me and I didn't know what you meant. I thought you were just telling me…that because you wanted me To know as your best friend… but it was a love far more than that. Soon I was 5,and you were 6, we were still best friends. Still so close in every way. One day at school you were acting so strange, I couldn't comprehend just what it might have meant. You seemed scared, but calm at the same time like you knew something was to come…but to tell me, it wasn't the right time. A few weeks later you had changed, always acting more than caring. You acted so peculiar, so strange. You were sweeter than sweet, and kinder than kind. Always telling me that you loved me, and would for all of time. I wondered just what you meant, but I let it pass. I was ignorant and Naive to what might be happening. I thought you were just being yourself, but worried about something you couldn't tell me. Thought it was just nothing, that's why you wouldn't tell me. I was so wrong, but yet, I was young and still Naive. Some days later you took your last breath, no smile adorning your Face. No more James for me to tease, no more James for me to look forward to seeing. No more James to help wipe away my tears. No more James…to chase away all of my fears. Oh James how I wish you were still here. No more James…because now you're gone. It's been ten years but it seems like my feelings for you, still remain just as strong as the day they were when you left this world. It's been ten years and more since that day, that God took my James away. Yeah I saw it, I know it was heartbreaking yes.This is part one of two parts of a true story, please comment, thank you.~*SaMmIe*~
