He decided to kill himself because I ran off with his beloved wife.
I told him that he wasn/'/t worthy of her and she was somebody who he couldn/'/t satisfy.
I didn/'/t know what I did and said would hurt him that much and make him want to die.
We became friends at the age of six when we were kids.
As each day passes, it gets harder to live with what I did.
We were such close friends that we became blood brothers.
We declared that no matter what, we/'/d always be there for one another.
But he killed himself and now he/'/s buried in the ground.
I betrayed my best friend, I can/'/t believe that I let him down.
As each day passes, I know more and more that I don/'/t deserve to live.
When I look in the mirror, I see the face of a man who I can never forgive.

I/'/m having to live with guilt because my best friend ended his life.
