That Morning

“[That] morning”
I believed I knew you
Could trust you
And then I learned
The truth
The secret you had kept.

“Goodbye…old life”
of our memories
when I believed in our friendship.
Every minute was full
Of joys and laughs.

“Let us know each other by this.”
The memories
Of a time before that morning
When I could count on you
And our friendship was true,
Full of laughter.
