I strummed a few chords tonight
While remembering my old best friend
Wondering when exactly we parted ways
Trying to recall just exactly why things had to end
I began to play an older song
The one she always did love
And recalled our summers spent together
And wondered if she saw the same full moon in the sky above
I still have all of the pictures,
The notes and that beautiful pearl necklace she gave me;
Yes those memories started to move stealthily in my mind
As I began strumming those chords now so lonely
I noticed that all those memories were slowly fading
Just mere images left in my mind
Knowing I'd concealed her visage in boxes
Since we had our falling out that time
And it was just so difficult to try to sing
Knowing that song was always shared with her
And I realized just how vacant everything has become
Since the time of our friendship's departure
And so I felt a few tears coming on
And from my strumming, took a break
Knowing I could not finish it without her;
The heartrending memories then became too much to take
So dear friend to who I scribe this prose
Please know you are forever in my heart
I never will forget that summer
And you've been forgiven from the start
