Hmmm....I was Just Googled the Ex BFF's name and this poem popped up. Portions of it really resonated with me - reflecting what I feel about the whole relationship. It is funny how you have childhood friends, you lives kinda split apart as they get filled with other people, responsibilities and experiences. When you are young - you are so niave and passionate that your friends will be with you forever. When life intervines it becomes a choice between them and family. Here it is:
"I cannot be in your future
since the road exploded
in a shower of directions...
my mind vibrates
a parade of faces
and your face
is not there...
your life duplicated many times
until you would not recognize
the patterns that replaced you...
it is as if time entered the scales
shining on the sea of memory
and consumed itself in a white flash."
