Dear Matt,
I know that your heart full of spite
That you will just crumple this letter,
But I just wanted to get the emotions out;
I've been holding them in for so long.
I just want to say that I miss everything,
About the friendship we had once shared.
I miss talking to you about the most simplest things,
And I miss how your presence made me smile.
I don't know what I've done to upset you,
It must have been horrible to make you depart.
Now the words we exchange are insults,
And your presence makes me overwhelmed with sorrow.
Every time I look at you I feel sorrow
Building up within me for what we've lost.
But at the same time I want the sky,
To crush you, and me to end this pain.
Everyday you glare at me it eats away at me,
And tears well up in my eyes when I think of you.
I try to hold back this strong sadness,
With anger but it doesn't work.
I know I should feel nothing but hate,
But when I remember the times we shared
All I can feel is a false happiness then sadness.
I wanted those memories to continue forever.
I don't expect you to ever forgive me,
For whatever I did to fill you with hate.
I just wanted to tell you that I wish
More than anything that we could have
Just one more happy conversation together.

This was a lettery poem to a former friend called Matt. We were very close within just a year and then suddenly all the love and friendship we had turned to hate and I don't even know why. This letter is just getting some emotions out there.
I really miss him and I keep having dreams where we are friends again and when I wake up I'm crying because I know it will never happen.

Did you give him the letter?
I know I have been betrayed, back-stabbed, and utterly dumbfounded by the actions of people who were once my friends. But hopefully, there is some explanation that maybe time will heal! -
Hood Wink!
I can relate to this sooo well, I had a best mate, Mark and then out of no where ... nothing. He stopped talking to me and gives me flithy looks when he sees me and I still to this day, 6 yrs later have no idea why
It isn't easy, but it is good you got this out
♥
Stay safe

I feel your pain. I had so many friendships end and not really know why. Mostly they just fade away. I don't think you really did anything at all. People just change their minds.

Very nice heart felt write
I mmyself felt the sincerity in this write and I think if I was you I would give him a copy of it and let him read it I really would for if you dont know why how can he break the friendship he should at least tell you why and let you defend yourself . More than likely he heard some gossip or something and didnt ask you if it were true or not . Also if you were sad a lot and he was trying to help you and you refused to listen and getbetter maybe he felt you didnt want him around anymore and his feelings are hurt as well . Give him a copy of your poem honey at least try to get the communication back

I'm sorry this happened to you. It's really hard to have a friendship end for no reason... I know how it feels all too well.
This was beautifully written, and I hope he does get a chance to read this, and I hope you get your answers.
Thank you for entering dear.
