My Long Lost Best Friend

Dearest

Remember when you and I

Dreamed the same dreams

Hoping that some day we would

Live next door to each other

And our spouses would be friends

And we would have children together

And they would be friends

It seemed like it was only yesterday

After high school when you moved away

We promised to remain friends

But it seemed like all we did

Was drift away

We got busy and the lives we swore to live as one

They became to separate ones

In two different states

We took two different paths

And now I find myself walking through yours

To what happened

With this letter I read to you today

Along with the wild flowers I brought

Do you remember the wild flowers?

I cry here today not because you have moved on

But because you moved on without me
