I Saw An Old Friend… Poem by Sana Olivia Hernandez

I saw an old friend,
And things were just fine.
We were still friends after all…
Or so I thought at the time.

I saw an old friend again,
She had a new friend.
And that was fine.
But only by me…
When I was there she wined.

I saw an old friend once more,
Though it wasn't as nice as before.
I could tell something had changed.
This time all she did was wave.

I saw an old friend down the hall,
She had lost weight and gotten so small,
Still with the more popular friend,
She only waved again.

I saw my old friend again,
But she pretended to not see me.
So I did the same.

I saw her again recently,
Our parents were there so we smiled politely.
She didn't come near me.

I saw my best-old friend turn her back on me.
I watched her leave.
