Farewell to you, my faithful friend.
It’s hard to believe this is truly the end.
But the passing of time will become our eraser
‘Till all that is left has been turned to a blur.
I can't mask my pain- I don’t want to leave
The lack of your presence will make me grieve.
For our memories soon will be lost to me
And never again your sweet smile will I see
Your words and your wisdom that made me stronger
Will not be there for me any longer.
And so my heart pumps not blood, but sorrow
As my thoughts turn to facing tomorrow.
But I’ll keep in mind what I must do-
Look for someone that’s as good as you.

You were born an origanal why die a copy?The secret to success is the consistency to pursue.To the world you may be one person,but to one person you may be the world.To receive the right answer,you must ask the right question.Don't worry be happy! :)

&quot;The mark of the immature man is that he wants to die nobly for a cause, while the mark of the mature man is that he wants to live humbly for one.&quot; <br /> &quot;Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if only one remembers to turn on the light.&quot;

This describes my relationship with my old friends- well, what it was like a few months ago. This is written really beautifully. Keep writing!
