best friends say goodbye part II

[Chaotic Action Man]

what do you do when you’ve reached the last chapter.
the last page on which was written,
last words, both spoken and unsaid.
what do you do when you close the book
on your oldest friend.

so hard to let go of the last vestiges
of what we were, what we hoped to be.
yet look at what we have become.
so strong in the growing,
the never ending walkabout,
searching not for the answers that define us,
but rather the questions we’ve posed instead.

always the bird who flittered,
you never have done so in vain.
maybe the words were not there,
but you were always the one
leading the way in the darkness
by the beautiful sound of your voice.

you were my everything.
and in the end?
the many tears
filling a river to the sea
have released us...
two boats set sail
and are free.

this was beautiful. it really touched me. i am really passionate about my best friends and letting them know how much i love them and care for them.

searching not for the answers that define us,
but rather the questions we’ve posed instead.

but you were always the one
leading the way in the darkness
by the beautiful sound of your voice.

yeah. i liked this too.

my absolute best friend in the world, and I are on completely seperate pages now.

And I was having a huge problem dealing with the 'we are never going to be the same again'.
