Unreturned

I was so happy
Then it stopped being true
Because I never thought about
The things I would have to do.

Why does it have to be like this?
Why can't things stay the same?
A friendship did I have
Something I no longer can claim.

Now this friendship I have
Must come to a halt.
I want to blame someone else
But I know it's all my fault.

It's my fault for becoming
Attached to her like so.
I should have realized
When it was time to let go.

I have come to see
Not all things last forever
There sometimes is an end
To each and every endeavor.

It's time to come to terms
Because no matter how I fight
I know I must give in
Even if it doesn't seem right.

So now I'd like to announce
The lesson I did learn.
Even thoughts of friendship
Can often be unreturned.
