Remember the way
We used to play
The parties we shared
And the way we would laugh?

The way we used
To do everything together
No fights
Just friendship.

But through the years
We fell apart
And the memories
Are almost gone

And now your gone
Away with the crowed
Moved on from the way
We used to play

I wrote this piece about my best friend in elementary school, and how we were so close, but in Jr. High, we completely broke off.
