Letters to Your Ex-Best Friend
February 18, 2019
Dear bestfriend,
Today we had our first fight.
It was small, but now thankfully
Everything is back to normal.
Love, your best friend
Dear ex-best friend,
I’m here,
Waiting.
Waiting for the day
You realize
What you've lost.
I’m here.
Are you?
With hope, your ex-best friend
Dear ex-best friend
I spend most of my nights
Crying,
Overthinking,
Wishing things didn’t end on such a bad note,
But then again the past is untouchable
Just like the future isn’t imaginable
Without, you.
Broken , your ex-best friend
Dear ex-best friend
I’ve been waiting
For what feels like an
Eternity
For you to be ready
To let me back in.
I’m still here.
I’m still waiting.
Am I waiting for nothing?
Doubtfully, a stranger

This was so relatable. Would really appreciate you checking out work!!!
My name is Sage Guilmette and I am a freshman at Exeter High School. This poem is something that happened to me a couple years ago and I took the pain from the situation and turned it into this poem to show how it feels to lose someone that is close to you. I wrote this poem in my honors english class and I used it as a spoken word poem.
