That Was It (Part Two)

When I first met you

I never thought you’d become this important to me

Yet now I find myself 

Wishing you never had to leave

There was a quote I read in a book a few years ago

It’s stuck with me over the years

It said,

“One friend can change your whole life.”

As the months have been whisked away

I’ve realized that you’ve been that friend

You were the friend

I didn’t know I needed

When I met you

I was full of self-doubt

But you showed me my worth

And you made me feel 

Like I was somebody

And even if the last time I’ll ever see you 

Was May 15th, 2024, 

I’d still consider myself lucky

To call you my friend

Because you’re one of the best I’ve ever had.
