When one loses a friend.

For five years I have shared countless memories doing the most fun things,
but also dealing with the worst with my friend.

Now I've lost that friend, gone from my life forever.

I first met him whilst working at a fast food outlet and soon discovered we were best of friends.
We messed around ridiculous amounts at work, sometimes over the line. But even he as a manager of the place, He'd still joke around with me. but,

Now I've lost that friend, gone from my life forever.

We continued being friends even after I left that job and I would quite regularly visit his place for the weekend to nerd it up and play games the whole time.
Even when I was dead broke he would gladly shell out for a burger, without hesitation as a good friend would, but

Now I've lost that friend, gone from my life forever.

After I came back from an overseas trip I moved in with him, no signing of lease or anything just jumped into it and had an absolute blast.
Joke around until stupid hours of the next day, and this time it was he who was short of funds, so of course as a friend I helped him out.

But then it happened. I lost my friend, gone from my life. The thing is, there was no car crash, no medical reason
or no attack made on him. I lost my friend, to a girl.

One month is all it took for her to move in and set the seeds in his mind. She didn't like me. So what did HE do?

He killed my friend. Asked me to move out after 5 years of knowing him, because his girlfriend of 1 month didn't approve of me.

That's all it took, and I ask my self "Could he have been that great of a friend?". That question will take a while to answer, but one thing I do know, is that,

I've lost that friend, and the one who took him from me, was himself.
