My best friend and I
We have sleepovers in the summer.
We ask for another
And another
And another
Until we didn’t have a sleepover again.
My best friend and I
We walk around the neighborhood.
We walk
And walk
And walk
Until we never walked around the neighborhood again.
My best friend and I
We are close.
We drift further
And further
And further apart
Until we aren’t best friends anymore.
