We were best buddies for decades
Why, then, did our relationship sink?
Yes, there was some communication gap,
And you know, I did try to fix that.
Yet you were unwilling to make amends.
And I could do nothing but stack my pain.
The gap slowly grew, like a fingernail
Bruising our bond and leaving me hurt.
