Friendship Funerals

Friendship funerals
Rest in peace camaraderie
From amity calamity
To many different eulogies:
“Feelings got involved”
“They left when I was down”
“Our friendship was toxic”
“We’re just so different now”
Wait! – open that casket!
I think this one’s still alive!
But who am I to say
Up to them to decide
