test of time

i still remember, growing up, the two of us, we swore that we'd always be friends, we didn't know yet, that promises have consequences, even when you're just a kid, one fight, she was out of my life, and it shattered what i thought we built, wish i, could have swallowed my pride, but now i have to live with the guilt, i saw that she's gotten married, in pictures she looks really happy, a snapshot of her life without me, and i know, i've never done that well with change, and there's no point in trying to place blame, i just hate it that we couldn't stand the test of time, sophomores in high school, history class, he made me laugh, and instantly we got along, we'd sit for hours, and contemplate, the world we'd change, that way that you do when you're young, but life's tough, and he picked me back up, when the first boy i loved broke my heart, i even caught him, when he hit his rock bottom, but slowly we've drifted apart, he and his wife had a baby, i haven't heard from him lately, but i hope he knows how proud he's made me, you don't get closure, you blink and it's over, and you never see what a good thing you had til it's gone, i never saw, what a good thing i had, but it's gone
