One Year Ago...

One Year Ago,
Things were so different.
You were here back then,
And you were my best friend.

One Year Ago,
You'd call me everyday,
And wait till I pick up,
Or else you'd call again.

One Year Ago,
You'd mail me everyday,
Didnt matter if I replied or not,
You'd send them anyway.

One Year Ago,
You'd hear me talk about my school,
Laugh and even pretend,
As though you werent bored at all.

One Year Ago,
You'd cry at the thought,
Of leaving this place behind,
It used to scare you a lot...

One Year Agom
You declared you'd never see,
Anyone in your life again,
Who'd be half as good as me.

One Year Ago,
I really believed,
You meant every word,
That you said to me.

One Year Ago,
Things were so different.
You were here back then,
And you were my best friend...

This poem is inspired from a friend of mine, who's right now working in India. A few months ago, he told me about how he and his best friend turned into complete strangers, over the course of one year. In that one year, they both pursued their careers in different parts of the world, and slowly grew apart.

Nothing he told me has been put into this poem. But he did give me the idea for it. The rest is my own creation. If you're reading this, dude, thank you!
