I miss the way we used to laugh
At everything we did
I miss the way we used to smile
And joke around and kid
I miss the way we used to sing
So horribly for fun
I miss the way we used to giggle
But now all that is done
I miss the way we used to fight
Even though that's strange
Becuase we always made up
Right until that day
I miss the way we used to share
Everything we had
I missed the way we used to argue
And then couldn't stay mad
I miss the way we used to do
Just everything as one
But I guess it stopped being that
Friendship was no longer fun
I'm just basically saying this
To name my favorite things
But I guess it doesn't really matter
Because then those things did change
Some hurtful words were spoken
Possibly a shout or two
And then it was all over
And then what could I do?
Six months later we met up
We laughed just like last time
But I knew it was all over
Friendship wasn't fine
I don't really miss
the way you used to be my friend
I just named the things we did
Up until the end

Thank you!
I wrote this because my friend for eight years and I grew apart, and this is based off of the experience we had! Thank you for commenting! I went into a little lapse here on AP where my stuff wasn't read a whole bunch--maybe because I wasn't on a lot! LOL! So thanks again! :)
Oops! For sure a typo. Is it bad to say I don't mind leaving it that way? I guess I'm a lazy speller! LOL! Thanks for pointing that out! :))

Up until the last verse, I
Up until the last verse, I could have molded this perfectly to one of my own experiences. Beautifully written, and very true.

Thank you! :)
I sort of stuck that last one in there as a defense for myself; because I found a better friend after her (KASSADY!!) and realized who a true friend was! LOL! So thank you very much the both of you for reading and commenting. :)
Aw!
Aw! Your so sweet!
My heart went all warm when I read your comment! And be assured that you are one of the bestest friends ever! Ameras Mutla! I could never ask for a better friend (sister! *wink*)!
I loved this poem! SO AWESOME!
Your so sweet! Thanks!
See ya Soul Sister Sitter!

Write On!
Thanks, Kass! :)
Me too! You and Liddy are some of the best friends I've ever had--no doubt!! :D We homeschooled, insane authors stick together!
Wow pretty sad
I'm suprised no one commented on this yet! This is a really good piece; quite melancholy, but good! I suspect that this was based off of something in your life from the emotion in the piece, but I could be wrong. This reminds me of a friendship of mine that was lost years ago. It's a very moving piece! Thank you for posting it!
