Words had been exanged..
A promise made in the past.
It's been a few years since then.
A child's view, a pact that day was made.

Words had been repeated.
Chanted even: turned into an incantation.
I remember their sound,

In my mind, engraved...
Marked, I think, for all of eternity....
''Bffs Forever''.
Inscribed in my heart.

Some things are precious to me.
Those words were.
They made me happy...
And I believed in them.

I don't know about you, not anymore.
Those words, for me...
Were important, still are.
I took them seriously, even to this day.

Is it valid for you?
You didn't give me the impression that it was...
Is it still for me...?

...

Dare I say.. yes.

Should I leave the past in the past?
Even if it breaks my heart?
Maybe I should.
But I don't want to...

If necessary, I'll do it.
I truly have tears coming to my eyes just thinking about it.
Even if, for you, this promise is now mere childishness,
Even if you'd find me strange to believe in it so much...
To give it importance...

First of all know that it'd not change.
Even if I let water flow under bridges and suns set over and over.
Even if I let the bird fly away.
Another one of my landmarks fall to the ground...

Even if I'm currently crying
Of incertitude.
Of fear.
Of sorrow.

I want you to know...

I won't be crying because a friendship came to its end.
I will be smiling because it happened.

Even if tears are streaming down my face
I won't wipe them away
Because I've understood for a while that, for me,
Nothing lasts. Not eternally.

It's adapting, or crashing down.
And I won't drag down anyone that, for me, matters,
With me, while I fall.
I'll push them to fly away.

Because I understand.

Even if.. for me..

Those words will always be a memory that I cherish preciously, as an eternal treasure.

Bffs forever.
