My best friend,
The name I used to call you.
I told you all,
Anything and everything.
Something changed,
Within my heart.
It must have happened in yours too.
We can’t seem to talk anymore.
You deny
And I seem to, too.
That the closeness is gone.
I don’t want to think it is.
But somewhere deep
Down within me.
You are there, I know.
Why can’t we be the way we were?

Go all the way home!
