Like this:

I was angry and upset
You entered the next chapter
I could not accept the fact
Seemingly without regret

Jumping into a whole new experience
You seemed so happy that way
Making new friends and losing touch with the old
Learning more and more each day

I held it for the longest time
Keeping it to myself
Did not want to see you upset
Tried to show that I was fine

It was far too long to recall
The time of our last exchange
At a point I almost gave up
Deciding that it wasn’t worth at all

A month later it hit me
How I was behaving
Blinded by my own selfishness
It was nothing of your doing

Eventually we talked it out
I shared how I felt
You shared your side as well
I understood without a doubt

You had a lot on your plate
It kept you not only from me but others too
And if I was half as good a brother as I claimed
I should be understanding and supporting you

One day when I least expected
I received a phone call
“Hey bro wanna meet up?”
It was then that I realized

It does not matter how rarely we meet
Or how often we talk
I know I will never lose her friendship
And I was wrong in feeling that way at all
