Remember that year?

In our sixth grade

You taught me card games

We played and played

That was us before

So young and naive

But to this day

I still grieve

As long as I live

I’ll never forget

That end-of-year fight

I’ll always regret

Seventh grade came

We drifted apart

Smiling in the halls

But conversation would not start

We lost all touch

The very next year

You would text

But I failed to adhere

Then came that fateful day

A sunny March afternoon

When a car slammed into yours

And you were gone so soon

I remember a time

When we were best friends

But on that day, in that wreck

You met your very end

I’ll always remember us

Playing around willy-nilly

But comes a time to say goodbye

I’ll always miss you, Tilly
