Through the years,

we were friends.

Braving the tides,

we tried to be strong.

With each other,

we never lost hope.

Till the day comes,

you decide to let go.

My heart aches,

to see you go.

I cannot be happy,

for you to choose.

A path to nowhere,

but pain and tears.

Helpless to help,

I could only pray.

That you may be safe,

and return unscathed.
