Nothing More

Nothing could break us apart.

We'd been friends for ten years.

 

I never knew a friendship could hurt,

but it did, more than anything.

 

Your words twisted in my head

as I tried every excuse for me to leave.

 

I caused an uproar,

beating my chest and yelling.

 

Then you were gone,

like a ship in the night.

 

Silently,

cooly.

 

I knew I could never forgive myself

for your pain.

 

Yet now I am happy

maybe even more.
