Broken Friendship Bond Poem by Janneke Tenvoorde

We used to be the best of friends.
It seems like yesterday.

Our relationship was one of the best.
It was so different,
This special friendship bond.

You and me were one of a kind.
We shared days of laughter.
We shared days of pain.
You brought a smile to my face.
You were a good friend,
That no one can replace.

We used to be the best of friends.
We used to be closer than sisters.
We vowed to be friends forever.
But it didn’t last that long,
This special friendship bond.
Too good too be true.
I thought it was unbreakable.
Until one day it broke.

I sometimes wonder what went wrong.
What broke this friendship bond?
I don’t believe it is jealousy.
You were just too busy,
With friends that were better than me.
More attractive, more popular.

It seems that you don’t understand.
It’s the inside that matters.
But now I have nothing inside.
Just pain, despair, and sorrows.
It feels like a part of me,
Has drifted away.

How could you forget me so soon?
After all we went through,
All those sweet memories.

In your life I have been replaced.
You have another friend.
I am still alone.
Now that you’re not here,
There’s an empty hole in my heart.
