Death of a friendship

Dear B,

I missed your call.

What do you need? Funny, but for the last three years now, I believe that you’ve avoided me! So, what has changed? Why reach out now? There must be something that you want, so tell me, what can I give you now?

Why else reach out, I have to ask? You made it clear that we were done, I'm not trying to be an ass!

You must admit, it sure seems strange. I'm surprised honestly, that you still publicly speak my name!

You had no qualms, left me behind. Like we were never friends, the love lent, you then, quickly declined.

When I needed you most, you simply walked away. Left me to fend for myself, all alone, made me feel ashamed!

But now I know, exactly who you are:

A false friend whose actions left me destroyed, leaving me with nothing but these scars. What you have done, you have no clue. I absolutely, positively - have no more use for you!!

Don’t bother asking how I am, or offering an ear, I learned all that I needed of you, by your enormous absence here!

Don’t false face me now, we've torn the weft, pictures and some memories are all that we have left. But you keep them too, it was made up stuff, thank you for reminding me that it was time that I finally grew up!

Oh, and I have, on my own, anew! What you see here my friend, what's left of me- hand crafted by you! What once was friendship, pure trust and love, turned to a lack of trust, indifference, I need to let go of ...

And I’ll let go of that too, just give me a few.

I'll forget and move on, those memories long gone.

Remember?......I learned that from you!

Your convenient friend,

K
