best friends forever

i know longer trade friendship bracelets

but little pieces of my heart

for little pieces of yours

to take with me when i’m gone,

when you’ve left for something new,

because we knew this could never be

forever

and i’ve found myself with

nothing of my own heart

for it is scattered to the wind,

pieces left for safekeeping and

instead my heart is your heart

or rather pieces of all our forevers cut short
