In Spite of Ourselves

by Kate   Dec 29, 2006


Why do things have to change?
I remember things the way they once were
You and Me we used to be able
To defeat anyone, anything
It was just us nothing more nothing less
Closer than sisters
Regardless of what they said
We did things our own way
We could do anything
Fierce friendship and loyalty
Strong support system
But then again that was so long ago
What happened?
Why did we get caught up
In all the corruption
We said wed never let ruin us
Was it my jealousy?
Or your selfishness?
Mistakes too many
Why do we both have to be so stubborn?
Pride is a sin after all
It�s destroyed what we once valued most
Maybe not as we grew older
That friendship changed along with ourselves
It was them or us
9 long years�lost
As time goes on and anger fades
I dont remedon't why we fought
All I remember is the hurtful things
Weve doneWe'veeach other
I cant take those things back
I cant change the past
Run by emotions of rash and unseen consequence
I would give it all back
But we cant go back to something
That was lost along the way
I cant recall why we lost it
I always thought we could get through it
Now Im not soI'mure
Somehow I feel defeated
Its sad to know that something as strong
As what we had
Could be destroyed
Because of something so small
And in the end we proved them right
That we would never make it
And though I believe well both be fine
I know well never truly make it again
That part of me is still missing
Though I ignore it
Its there
And will always be
I just hope one day I get some closure
I dont want to hurt like you dont anymore
