Lost and Found

Out of all of your memories,

Can you name a friend

That has been there the whole time.

Who has never stabbed you

Through the heart.

Who has always kept a shoulder open for your tears.

Who has listened to you complain

Without complaining?

Who has never thought a bad thing about you.

Who, no matter what.

Threatened to beat up the people who hurt you.

Who would have if you would have let them.

That could get you to smile

By saying very few words.

A friend who has always been true.

Who has never ditched you.

Never left your side.

Who was always there

To protect you.

Even if you thought you didn't need it.

Though were quite thankful for it in the end.

A friend who you could count on

To drop anything just to come comfort you.

Who has been what everyone else would call a sister

Or a best friend even,

And yet you seem to forget that.

Everything she has done.

Everything she has helped you with.

In private, you say that she is the reason you are who you are.

But in public you deny that.

You say that you haven't until recently,

Ever had a best friend.

Well you don't know what you have,

Until you lost it.

Well you just lost it.

And as far as it can tell

It isn't coming back

Until something changes

With you.

I have been true to my word.

I don't need you

Like you have needed me over the years.

I am my own person.

I need no one

But myself right now.

And I am tired of you just blowing me off

For someone who wont be in your life a few years from now.

You lost me

And I found myself all over again.

I am keeping that for ME.
