Not the end but a beginning

This poem I write, I write because your time is growing short

For one day soon you will have to leave and we will grow apart

I wish there was a way for me to change these painful facts

But no matter what happens, this play will happen in acts

For the first part will be hard

As the memories become old and charred

In the second stage you will meet

New friends whom you will gladly greet

You will feel sad at first

Always preparing yourself for the worst

But even though this friendship may wax thin

No one could ever change all the places that we've been

Even then I could be wrong about this whole philosophy

But I've never been wrong and that is what makes this a tragedy

And yes you will find someone else to take the place of him

Admit it gladly and place him in the parts of what has been
