It has been years since
we have seen each other.
Since we have played.
We shared tears and laughs.
Time together and apart.
What I want to say to you- my friends.
I found my path, the road I must take
to find myself; to better my life.
I cannot do that; not with you.
You are poison in my veins
a black stain on my heart.
We had good times together
I cannot deny that;
But I am happier
Now that we are apart.
This poem is about the bittersweet memories of an old friendship. We had a lot of fun growing up but it turned toxic and I'm doing much better now.
