I Miss My Friend Poem by RACHEL ZARANTONELLO

Is fate what you make it, or
what is meant to be?
Your dreams, your future,
What exactly IS destiny?
If I only knew then
what I understand now
Would things be the same,
Or different somehow?
I miss the way things used to be
When I laughed & talked to my best friend
I'm better alone, as you slip away
So I can simply pretend
Wrong choices, or right?
How will I know?
If things could be different,
Would you ever tell me so?
No worries, no heartache,
Not a reason to cry
I keep you in my heart
It's too hard to say goodbye
