We both had little pieces of matching thread
on our wrists
our own handmade friendship bracelets.

she told me that the day these came off
we wouldn't be friends anymore
so i was always extra careful
making sure mine never broke or got lost.

but then one day i saw her with someone else
they were sitting together and laughing
and looking so happy.

when i called out to her she just got up
and walked away
leaving me standing there all alone.

that night i waited and waited
hoping she would call me and
say something to make it all better again
like she usually does.

but this time she didnt call
so i went to bed with tears in my eyes
and a hole in my heart.

the next morning i woke up
and my little bracelet
was gone.
