My best friend left the navy.
She ironed her uniform.
Clicked 'return to sender'.
Wrote, "it's washed but never worn".
We're sitting in her bedroom, listening to her cry
I whisper,
"if you ever need me I will be right here:
if your ever feeling low, just thought I'd let you know"
She answered, "thanks for all you've done,
but it doesn't install me with hope".
I said "I love you as a sister",
but she will never know,
I loved her as a person,
but had to let her go.
Yet this notion seems to click,
and she raises a fake smile.
She may feel more insecure,
but its only for a while.
I changed her life.
