Kindred

You never made me hurt through my whole existence
We shared moments that only best friends experience
You left without saying to me goodbye
With your suicide
And that's all I now remember
I'll never find another like you, you were my kindred
You moved me, and I loved your spirit to the end
So why did you go away
We'd talk all night
Why did you choose to enter forever
I'll never replace one like you
But I wasn't enough to save you
And I ask myself
All the time
Why
