Broken

The best of freinds we once were

almost as one - no "me" without "her"

there was nothing i couldn't tell her

I knew she'd always be there for me

loyal, loving, steadfast, and true

suddenly I am falling

through empty darkness

my arms frantically reaching

out searching for a hold

I am achingly hollow inside

she lied and betrayed

took my trust and carelessly dropped it

it lays in millions of shattered pieces

glistening like hot tears

that silently run down my face

I stop falling with a dull thud

bashed, beaten andexhausted inside

she smiles slyly, tosses her head lightly

and laughes as she turns away

leaving me behind

and i kneel down alone; with pain

throbbing inside

to try and put the broken pieces

back together

only to find they no longer will fit
