To My Ex-Best Friend

Dear Ex-Best Friend,

I miss you so much. This time last year we were having so much fun hanging out, telling stupid jokes, and being ourselves together. I feel like I don't even know you anymore.

You were the one person I knew I could count on for years and years to come. When people were to ask me about you, I could answer. Now I can't even say your name.

And I'm not even sure why we just stopped talking, but one day we were joking around and the next we were complete strangers. We don't talk, text, anything.

Every time I see you hanging out with our friends and being with them like you used to be with me, it feels like I'm being stabbed 100 times in the face. You don't mean to, but you leave me out of everything now.

Maybe it's for the best. Maybe this painful separation during high school was meant to make it easier for when college comes and we really do go separate ways. Just know that this isn't the way I thought it'd end; I never thought it'd end.

But I do wish you the best. I wish you all the love and support and care you've given me for the past nine years. I wish you a great life full of happiness and sweet memories. I wish you the best. Maybe sometime later in life we can mend the brokenness of this situation. I have hope. Hopefully you do too.
