Friendship Fade Out Poem by Wilma Horne

She found a guy
Who made her happy
Who put a genuine smile on her face
He was everything that she ever wanted
She could envision having a future with him

One day that began to change
He started becoming distant
Making her sad
Giving her tears instead of smiles
Her vision began to waiver

Soon he was silent
No visits, no calls
Nothing at all
She confronted him about it
She didn't like what she heard

He had led her on
Made her believe a lie
He didn't want a relationship
He just wanted something else
She began to see the truth
Her heart began to break
And to harden

He tried to explain
That just made it worse
She challenged his answers
He had no excuse
She began to see red

She ranted and raved
Screamed and hollered
She cussed him out
He did the same
Her vision was full of tears

She instantly regretted her words
And tried to apologize
He wouldn't have it
He told her to leave
She left with tears streaming
And a broken heart

She tried to reach him
He didn't answer
She tried again
All she got was silence
Now all she sees
Is her broken heart
And the way things should have been
