and just like that its over

Today two of my best friends announced that they are breaking up. They were the ones in love who ,the rest of us were sure, would spend their lives together. We had even talked about what we would wear for their wedding, about the kids they will have and how we would all fit into the scheme of things. I have lived with them for two years and yeah, they had problems, but never did we imagine that one day the problems would become bigger than each other. Now, years after when they should have sorted things out during the nascent stages, they have drifted way too far apart, and fallen out of love with each other.

Suddenly the entire people picture becomes unclear again. Are we all going to drift away? What happens to the future we saw together? I dont want these shattered dreams to mean that our parents were right, we youngsters dont know what we are doing, friends dont mean a thing blah blah.

Today, all the relationships that were part of 'the best times ever' have completely come to an end. It is a sad day for love. I want to give love a chance, but the turn of events one after the other is such that, I am given more reason to believe in the non-existence of everlasting love. Sadly, these events involve my best friends, and me too.
