Goodbye my dear friends,
The closer we become,
The farther we drift.
We were the 3 musketeers,
Then 2 peas in a pod,
Now it's an army of one.
You've grown into someone new,
Leaving me behind,
We are still close
Very,
Very close
So close that....
We're practically strangers.

The author's comments:
Over the years, my friendship with my two best friends I met in my first year of High school has slowly decreased and before long it was like we never met. I hope it will let people hold on to the people close to them or they might disappear before they know it.
