My Best Friend

Bill- Was my best friend Who always told me the truth Jerk, concieded, asshole Were just some of the words he used He helped me through tough times I will always owe him for that But he was a junkie Who to me seemed to have it under control Until one day I got a call from his ex I thought she wanted to hook up Until I answered the phone He was dead Sleep apnea, she said But she didn't have to tell me Cause I new the real reason She knew we were close So she told me sorry in disgust and hung up Until that day I thought Me and him were that close Until he left me to fend for myself I cried and was a mess for a long time Then I wondered If he would of done the same for me I talked to other friends Who disowned him cause of his addiction Maybe he only talked to me Cause I didn't try to convince him to change I thought it wasn't as bad as it was But maybe I was caught up in my own thing To realize what was going on I used to visit him once a week But now that I doubt his friendship I don't go at all
