If anyone asks…

A Snippet

“But if anyone asks, tell them we’re fine” were the last words she said to me.

Even when we had had an argument, I still thought that we’d be together at the end.

I can’t believe that she’s gone.

I used to think it didn’t matter if I didn’t see her for a few days, I knew I’d see her soon, but now, that won’t happen.

It can’t happen… ever.

No matter what I do, I can never go back.

If only I hadn’t run out on her.

If only I hadn’t had to work.

Then maybe she wouldn’t be dead.

Maybe she wouldn’t have left me.

I miss her so much.

I know we were just friends, nothing more, but she was my best friend.

She knew the real me, not the mask that I put on for everyone else to see.

I thought at first, that she was just like the others, but when it came down to it, she just really got me.

She knew what I was thinking, even before I said anything.

I couldn’t say that she always knew what was best for me, but most of the time she did.

And now, she’s gone.
