Realization

"I have no friends"

Is what you'd always say.

I never knew why,

Until one day.

I was at work,

Like a normal sunday.

Working overtime,

Things seemed ok.

Doing my work,

Starring at the sun ray.

Then i got a call,

And all was grey.

I looked at my phone,

Surprised at the display.

It was your other half,

Which was a shock to me.

When I answered the call,

She said "come over, okay".

I jumped in the car,

And was on my way.

Stuck in traffic,

And was only halfway.

Thinking of you,

Whilst in this delay.

She said it's your arm,

In my head would play.

Driving to yours,

Thinking "not today".

I arrived at yours,

To see your car in the bay.

But everyone around,

Looking upset and they.

Where starring at me,

Like I had on a toupee.

As I walked to the door,

Only about halfway.

I started to feel cold,

And felt something decay.

The sounds of screams,

And your home in disarray.

From what I was told,

And the tears that they spray.

I honestly thought,

That the tears where cliche.

So I approached your wife,

And as usual said "hey".

The tears in her eyes,

Said she's not okay.

A hug I gave,

With strength like clay.

But the shivers I felt,

I could feel dismay.

I was Confused and naive,

As this was not everyday.

So I carried on as normal,

Saying what I would say.

"Where is he come on",

"Even if its faraway"

"Where did they take him",

"Were going right away".

The next part is hard,

So read on if your okay.

For what I will mention,

I can not takeaway.

The shock and the horror,

That from this day.

My life would change,

And go the wrong way.

I needed some air,

And couldn't stay.

For what I heard,

Does not go away.

I walked out your home,

And stumbled away.

I could not click on,

And I still can't today.

I was told you was gone,

For more than a day.

From this day forward,

We could no longer play.

The moment I heard,

I had nothing to say.

The shock and confusion,

Will always haunt me.

I don't believe it,

And refused to today,

I have a feeling,

You've ran away.

Dont be shy,

Come talk to me.

If you have any troubles,

You always count on me.

So why is this different,

Is it true what they say.

No way can god,

Take my best friend away.

You taught me loads,

And could rely on me.

This is a gift,

That will stay with me.

You my best friend,

Your a brother to me.

You called and helped,

When I couldn't see.

It's strange to think,

I cant see your face.

All I want to know,

Is that your safe.

That cheeky smile,

when your okay.

So please come see me,

At least to say hey.

I've stuck to my promise,

And I always will.

I will look after her,

And me she will.

Your always here,

Never forgotten.

Everyday,

Is always rotten.

Don't worry about us,

And waste your day.

We worry about you,

Please dont feel betray.

It's has been hard,

And always will be.

As I now know,

I've lost a part of me.

This poem can go on,

And will in my head.

But it's time,

For me to let you go bed.

But honestly speaking,

I'm in hurt and decay,

And all these words,

Will never portray.

This last part is daunting,

And will always haunt me.

But it was your way,

Of warning me.

That this was to happen,

So brace okay.

So thank you,

This will always stay.

You've made me learn,

And not live by yesterday.

And maybe one day,

I will find a way to pray.

For when you went for a ride,

And then went stray.

You said "you've lost me.",

Then went away.
