Years
April 1, 2016
5 years old
playing in the mud
with my best bud
8 years old
first day of school
we were so cool
11 years old
he moved away
I wish he'd stay
whn he leg I felt pain
without him I felt Insain
times got harder
he was my armor
14 years old
depression and sadness are my only friends
my heart and soul may never mend
16 years old
my best friend returned
my heart and soul had yearned
18 years old
I moved away today
it was anything but gay
as we said our goodbyes
we had tears in our eyes
my heart was his and his was mine
I love you.

It's supposed to say "when he left I felt pain." Not "when he leg I felt pain" sorry
My best friend was my first crush, and he had moved away when we were young. I was really depressed from age 11 to now and he always seemed to just make everything disappear.
