A final farewell
by ericdn

To a person who was once in my life. With love.

About you I once cared
Memories last always
And all the time we shared
In those forgotten days

The memories from then
Have never left my head
Can we remember when
Our friendship just turned dead?

One time we were just glad
And our lives were carefree
Where are those times we had?
They’re just inside of me

Thoughts are always fleeting
Memory is unkind
Time is not abating
It’s just a state of mind

From those days you’ve moved on
And I have stayed right here
Your thoughts of me are gone
My feelings you don’t hear

One time you were my friend
I no longer know you
It’s come, then, to an end
Our friendship now is through
