something cliché

i miss my friend who wrote 'i love you'
and meant it.
i miss the time when she was open and loving.
i miss the time when she was understanding
and not condescending.
i miss her playful attitude.
i miss the time when she was willing to admit
she might be wrong.
i miss the time when she didn't think she knew
everything.
i miss the time when she didn't act
like she was better than me.
she was real then.
she's fake now.
i miss my friend.
