Losing You

by DutchGirl - Capricorn

I can't believe you're gone
We didn't know each other for long
I thought we had something special
Why did it have to end
If you would've stuck by me
This never would've happened 
You promised me you'd never start
Now you can't promise that you'll stop
But now we don't even talk
And you think it's all my fault
I tried to warn you sooner than later
But you were too stubborn to listen
And now that so many people are yearning
For you to be back and stop all the hurting
Nothing will ever be the same again
I cried for weeks, hoping you'd come home
But realized I was now alone
For you kept using the substance
And thought you had another chance
And now that you want to come back
We know in our hearts that you can't
Now I only see you in my dreams
But that's not how it really seems
For now you lay beneath crying eyes
As we all watch you slowly die

Reason for writing:

    I found out that my ex best friend had started using drugs...
