{ I LOST MY BEST FRIEND }

I write and I write,
But things don't change.
This pain in my heart,
Remains the same.
It's cruel, It's horrid,
It just plain hurts.
For her, Off of my back,
I would have givin my shirt.

She was the one,
She was my only.
But in the end,
Her love turned out to be phony.
She used to love me,
She was on cloud nine.
Now she still has those feelings,
But there for another guy.

It turns out this other guy,
Already has a wife,
Together,
They are destroying two families,
And who knows how many lives?

Things will never be able,
To be the same again.
Not only did I lose a lover,
But I lost my best friend.
