Best Friends

Remember all the times laughing together,
sharing secrets and hanging out,
We always said friends forever,
and new what each other was all about,

We had fun all the time,
the days were bliss,
you were my partner in crime,
those are the days I miss,

The days that you wiped away my tears,
told me he wasnt good enough,
We shared each others fears,
stood by each others sides when times grew ruff,

I memorized everything about you friend,
now you are gone,
We said till the end,
Now I am alone,

You are still my best friend,
I am still here,
remember I have till the end,
Soon I will be near

sad.. I miss the talks I had with my best friend… doesn’t seem like anything will ever be the same… hurts to think that…

Good poem though…. expressed those thoughts well…

As I read this I feel the hole in my heart which my bff use to fill, ache with pain. I had a best friend like that… but she turned out to be a backstabber (not to sound low). I think about the 8+ years we were friends and realize they were all fake… worthless and spent in vain. I hope you find your friend. I really like this poem… I can somewhat relate to it. Good ;)

Beautiful poem. I have a bff like that. We have known each other since kindergarten. Though we don’t see each other often we chat everyday on the phone or via email.

I completely understand how you feel. My best friend and I have been through almost everything together and I couldn’t find her for awhile after we graduated from High School. She was in such a rush to get away from the pain of her family telling her what to do all of the time. Even though we never saw each other, we maintained a connection that can never be broken. Now she is back with her family, and we see each other on some weekends, and our bond has never changed. True friends can last forever, through anything and everything, so I wish you good luck in finding your friend. Never lose hope in someone you can’t go a day without thinking about… or even a week. Great Poem!!!

Nice poem ! :)

12 LuvAddictXxX July 13, 2009 at 2:04 AM

It’s really a great poem. And within every strophe is a little piece of your heart. I really hope you find your long lost friend and maybe even show her this poem. I bet she’ll be as touched as I am now. Plus I suggest on posting more of your work, you are really good.
But don’t get your hopes to high, they might as well be shattered. That’s what best friends usually do…

Nice poem… reading this poem, I was imagining my best friends, I’ve been friend with since 1st grade, but then we have to move apart from each other after elementary school…Even though I’ve got alot of friends, none of them can fill up my heart… By the end of reading this poem, tears ran down on my cheeks….There is always one friend, which is the best, U cn’t forget in ur life, N I’m still looking for her… Wishing U the best to find Kyra…

46 i lost herr. March 4, 2010 at 3:00 PM

hey, that poem is very good, and it reminds me of a friend that i lost a few days ago, after having a big argument, and i don’t think that we will ever be friends again. but i do miss her so much and i want her back, but i dont think she likes me anymore. anyone have advice? i need her back, its like i
cant live without her being with me. we had sleepovers all the time, we shared all our secrets, everything, but now ive lost her i feel terrible and i cant focus on my work because thats how much i miss her! i had my school jab today, and i was crying after it, and they was asking why and i was saying because i lost my best friend, and i fainted because i’ve lost her! thats how much my friend meens to me! i need her back. i keep fighting to get her back everyday of my life, but nothing seems to happen, sometimes i feel we’re not ment to be friends when we argue, but we have never not talked for this long before! its been 4 weeks. i need her back. quickly before i lose her permanatley! :(

47 Lost March 7, 2010 at 7:23 AM

I know how it feels, though I never had a best friend..
I never shared my deepest secret with anyone and still, I can feel this intimacy between best friends.. .
I hope you find her someday…

48 Jessica March 13, 2010 at 10:25 PM

This is exactly how I felt when I lost touch with my best friend, after 10 years of searching and no luck we finally found each other once again and was able to reunite about 3 weeks ago, since that day we finally found each other its like we never lost one another, we picked right back up where we left off, I missed her so much, still miss her every moment we are apart, love you bestie!!!

49 munni March 16, 2010 at 1:56 AM
