There's someone I haven't talked to

in a very long time.

they use to be someone

that was a pretty good friend of mine.

A tragic loss

that i couldn't comprehend

I turned to this person

my very close friend

I needed some answers

to the questions I had

it felt like you turned your back

and I became very mad

It felt like you were gone

and so very far away

and I didn't really care

I had nothing to say

We didn't talk for so many years

and I didn't really care

feeling let down again by you

might be too much to bare

We spoke in February of 2006

then again in March of 2008

I wanted to patch things up

but it felt like it was too late

Our dialogue on those days
was short and very brief
I sat there and I questioned
all of my beliefs

Did you turn your back on me
or did I turn my back on you
a loss that caused me so much pain
I blamed it all on you

Some lessons we learn in life
we process over time
how could you take someone away
who was so loving and so kind

It is now that I can finally see
the lesson I have learned
I feel like our friendship
Is starting to return

We spoke the other day
for the first time in awhile
at the end of it all
I finally cracked a smile

It feel like a weight
has been lifted off my chest
after all these bitter years
I can finally rest.
