She slipped away
like sand through the fingers of my hand.
I didn’t understand why she didn’t say
what was on her mind that she couldn’t stand.
Why did you have to leave?
I still can’t believe
that you finished your life and broke mine, too.
Wasn’t there anything I could do to prevent
my best friend’s end?
I didn’t see the demons in her head,
I wasn’t able to see the tears in her eyes.
Now I have to pay the highest price;
I’m left alone and she’s dead.
How would I have known what was wrong?
She seemed to be so strong,
but behind that smiling wall
there was a girl with a broken soul.
Why did you have to leave?
I still can’t believe
that you finished your life and broke mine, too.
Wasn’t there anything I could do to prevent
my best friend’s end?
This is only a temporary good-bye,
I can’t live with this pain,
I’ll be next to die
and then I will see her again.
