I never got the chance ...

by sasha   Apr 6, 2005


Why did you leave me?
I woke up and you had gone.
Laid there in a pool of your own blood.
a knife lay besides you

Was your life really so hard that you had to wreck mine too?
I was there for you.
I helped you whenever you needed me,
You said that you’d help me to whenever I needed you.
I need you now, but you’re never coming ...
Are you?

My family put me down.
My friends turned their backs on me.
The love of my life left me,
all because I stood by you!
Because I didn't give into society
Or buy into the material world
like the rest of your so called "friends"
Because I stayed by you.

We promised each other that we would never let the other be alone
We signed our names on cards
“Your best friend ... always”
We’d talk for hours on the phone
We practically lived at each others houses.

We didn’t stay at each others house that night
We never will again,
No more hour-long phone calls
No more promises
No more "Your best friend always"
There’s nobody else
Just me
I just wish I had the chance to,
But I didn’t

I never got the chance to say ...

Goodbye.
