A New and Better Best Friend

** Hi guys please comment - I'd appreciate it, hope you enjoy**

It's hard for me to tell you
How much your friendship means to me
And that after all these years of trying
We've let that special friendship slip lately.

See you get all angry and mad at me
Every time I feel that there's a need for this to be said
And I'm left standing with out my best friend
All confused and not knowing in my own head.

See you and I had a friendship
That to me compared to no other
And considering I barely see you no more
How can I not expect there to be another.

Another friend to be there for you
The same way in which I stood by your side
That to me is the only explanation
As to why you will no longer let me inside.

And yes you see I saw that card
Last time I picked you up for a drink after work
A best friend card that was not sent by me
And too be honest girl… it really hurt.

Cause I couldn't even let another friend in
Not having sorted out what is wrong with us
Plus that feeling that I still have to over come
Now that you have let go and lost my trust.

Its not like I want to have you
As friend all selfishly to myself
I just expect support from someone who says there my best friend
When I am feeling down and in need of help.

No I don't want all your time
And friendship of complete occupation
But just some signs or words from you
About our friendship would have the greatest appreciation.

But I don't get that from you now
And too be honest I know you haven't felt that way much longer
It's been hard for me never knowing what you really think
But in another way it's made me so much stronger.

So today I guess I am giving up
I've tried my best but I have to say goodbye
I'm tired of having to fight for my best friend
And I'm wiping the last tears from my eyes.

Girl you and I had some great times
But inevitably all things must come to end
I'm sorry you felt the need to replace me
With a new and better best friend.

    ok i 4 got some stuff... anything worht having is worth fighting for...your friendship is never really strong or true until you face a huge fight, after that everything seems to fall into place

    OH WOW!! that was mid shocking..I have so muc hto say!! Firstly i am so soryr you lost a best friend i know how much it would hurt...But i have just met my best friend a year ago..and everything you said was exactly what we went through..Me not feeling jealous of other friends but i just wanted to talk about it and she never did..This seemed like what happened with us and its something I'd hope you never to go through..ABout the last line...Eirisa you know you my girl but yes she may have found a new one but NEVER will that person find a better one..She seriously doesnt know what shes missing!! How could she let a friendship with you slip away!! I just wanted to tell that no one could possibly replace you no matter how many times your mind tells you...This is getting quite long but this was just awsome ...Makes me so proud if you!!! I love ya tons!!!
    Ya baby sis, ~Chelsey~
