Touching and sad,
when friends have to go,
and you let them,
when you don't want to.

Memories just don't do it,
because you want to be real,
not false,
not phony,
but you have to let them go.

Sometimes friends are there,
sometimes they are gone,
most always they return,
but sometimes they are just gone,
forever.

The best friends always stay,
when they can,
and when they can't,
they come back,
always.
