You Promised

Friends since long ago,

Holding on to life,

Telling each other not to go,

Helping end the strife.

Then I got a call,

Raced to the bridge,

Couldn't catch the fall.

Down you went,

Then up you flew,

I felt spent,

Holding on to you.

Tears filled the sky,

I went to our spot,

To sit down and cry.

There you had tucked,

A fortune for me,

And wished me luck,

Because you are free.

Clutching the money,

The light paper bills,

I hugged myself close,

And sat very still.

You are gone,

But you left me,

All that we live for,

It's not funny.
