I tried to find you at school today.
I tried looking in the hall like usual.
But you weren't in the hall today.
But you weren't texting me like usual.

I got really scared, that something was wrong.
like the day it was the day she was gone.
i know you love her, and without her all is wrong.
but its hard to think that how we used to be, is gone.

because the truth is, your weren't just a friend.
and i didn't just say ill be there till the end.
i was honest my love,
and you were honest when you said she was above.

i didn't think you would really grow so close & fast. i'm pretty sure you didn't think so either,
cause your pretty much living with her, but in the past.
