A Poem of My World

After years of undeserved pain…
I found comfort in your presence.
You were the one I could count on,
You were more than just a friend.
I could tell you everything,
I could talk to you about anything.
I looked up to you
You taught me so much,
So much I didn’t know.
I had no idea what life was,
You guided me through it.
You were there first
To see me climb up the hole I had been pushed into.
You held me in your arms when I cried,
We laughed together at things that didn’t make sense.
You made me feel like I mattered…
You have no idea how much you meant to me.
It felt like I knew you my whole life
And we would spend forever side by side.
Years passed
I couldn’t imagine a life without you,
There was no way.
We were lost in our own world,
Holding on to life as it threw obstacles our way.
Every time we came out stronger,
Ready to face whatever came next.
Life was full of surprises,
But I wasn’t ready for what came next.
I didn’t know how to feel,
I didn’t know what I did wrong…
How I could fix something that I didn’t cause…
That night I died inside...
I felt my whole world crumble,
The world you helped me built.
“How could you?” is all I could say in my head…
Over and over and over again…
I had fallen,
Fallen hard and pieces were scattered everywhere.
I couldn’t put myself back together…
Pieces lost forever.
I thought years of our bond would mend the wounds…
But nothing could ever fix the damage engraved in my heart.
You lied…
And you kept lying to me.
Did I not matter?
Did our world mean nothing to you?
I felt useless… abandoned.
I wanted to hate you,
I wanted to erase you…
But I couldn’t.
I tried…
I tried so hard to talk to you,
Yet you lied to me again.
You destroyed me,
You changed me.
I started to build my walls up again…
I had no one to turn to.
I ran back to writing,
A whole book filled with sorrow…
You have no idea how much I’ve cried,
How many times I’ve tried to sew up the wound…
But you’ve left a scar in my heart…
A scar to remind me how happy we were
And in a moment how our worlds vanished.
I miss you more than you can imagine,
I miss the person I once knew…
Sometimes I still imagine what it was like,
I still replay our old life…
But it’s been too long,
I know it’s time to move on.
I should hate you…
But I only have sadness in my heart.
For this is a goodbye to old memories…
Hoping we can be happy somewhere else.
Even if we are no longer side by side,
I wish you a long and happy adventure.
I won’t ever forget,
And I  hope you won’t either.
Goodbye.

Needed to get something off my chest. 
Just writing.

I don't know what to say. This poem really spoke to me and my life! At least until the lying part. I would never! Me and my sister have years of bonding, and we are best friends. This describes our life, and warns me what could happen if I broke my promises to her, or she to me. I felt tears stinging my eyes by the time I had finished, and I intend to show this beautiful poem to her. I can tell this is from your heart, and it is so sad! And yet, so true of many people, who over time grow apart. May that never happen to my sister and I! Thank you for posting this. You are very talented. My heart is weeping. Heart-Kay
