This is a really amazing piece.

Sleepovers, boys, drama, and late night talks,
Quickly turned to cold shoulders, ignored phone calls,
fights, and awkward hellos.

Yes, sometimes it is more awkward among ex-friends than with strangers. Cliche, but true.

I can definitely relate to this one. It's sad, like losing a family member, but I guess its all apart of life. People follow different paths, conflicts become difficult to resolve and slowly grow, relationships grow volatile... So many reasons, the same result.

Fantastic poem!

Young or old, friendships come and go leaving an empty feeling inside longing for things to be the way they were. Life goes on though. Enjoyed your poem.
