A lame attempt at my old Poetry days

You were my best friend
You were my enemy
You were my fiancé
You were my everything.

I cannot honestly say
That I ever expect us to be
In the place we are today

I have cried too many tears
Laughed so many smiles
Had so many good times
And too many bad
But you still make me smile

I could not ask for a better place
Than where we stand today
You still make me smile
You still make me laugh
No longer do you have the power
To make me cry

We are both in better places
And oddly enough,
We are both fully aware that
We were not right for each other

You had once said that
I needed to find myself
And knew, I needed to be on
My own to do that
Somehow, I think I knew that too

You could have done it better
It didn’t have to be the way it was
But I am happy it all happened
It made me feel stronger inside
And if I could go back in time
I would still say ‘yes’

I am glad we held on
I am happy you are my friend
I still need you in my life
And want to be a part of yours

Thank you. For everything.
But most of all
Thank you for being my friend!
