Here’s to us.

To all of the laughs and the smiles shared,

The countless jokes and puns swapped.

I look back on those times and laugh.

Here’s to us.

To all of the conversations and texts exchanged,

The secrets whispered when the world was slumbering.

I glance back on those times and smile.

Here’s to us.

To all of the insults thrown at one another,

The hurtful comments we lashed out.

I gaze back on those times and cringe.

Here’s to us.

To the final battle,

The breaking point of our fragile balance.

I behold this with utter shock.

Here’s to you.

To your overwhelming stubbornness of never apologizing first,

The only way you would, being if I did first.

I remember that with tears.

But here’s to us

To all of those times now wasted because,

The only thing I asked for, the only thing I asked of you…

Do you really not look back on this and cry?
