Where Did You Go?

Reminiscence of days long since past,
memories of you came flooding back.
I remembered our laughter and tears,
and some filled with fear.

I knew you for longer,
than I knew myself.
And yet somehow I lost you,
without losing me.

And I ask myself questions,
like "Where did you go?"
The answer might be
that we just grew older and stronger.

We were reckless
and senseless.
We knew one thing,
that we were best friends, you and me.

We lost our connection,
and our friendship.
We just grew apart,
and found new friends.

Yet somehow you had changed,
differed in some way.
You found new friends,
who weren't so nice.

They changed you,
to the way they are.
You thought we'd changed,
but it was only you.

You pulled us apart,
your two best friends.
You really hurt us,
and hurt our friends.

So now I ask you,
"Where did you go?"
Because you aren't the girl
I used to know.
