Answer:
A. When two clauses are joined by a semicolon, they can usually be separated into two sentences.
Explanation:
A semicolon (;) is used to join  two independent sentences into one written sentence. This semicolon is used when the two sentences are seen to be closely related to be separated by the use of a full stop. Also, it is used when there is no connecting word that require the use of comma.
But in actual sense, a semicolon can be replaced by a full stop thereby forming two different sentences.
The two clauses joined by a semicolon can be separated into two sentences.

Izeah was my College best friend who I was able to confide in for any problems. He was the only person I really felt I had a true connection with considering that I have very few friends and so did he. I learned to love Isaias in a matter of weeks as something more than a friend, I considered him a brother. I myself have an older brother but he doesn’t love me or my dad which is something that has taken a deep scar within my heart. Izeah and me got along very well and for some time I told him that I was studying the Bible with Jehovah Witness and that I planned to become one soon. Nothing between him and me changed, I still kept in contact with him because I cared much for him. Then, one day I got a text from him saying that he didn’t want to be my friend anymore; those words hit me very deeply. I was very sad and hurt. He said to me that my new religion was something he wasn’t used to and wanted to part ways. I wanted to ask him if he wanted to work things out but I decided not to answer and left things just the way they were because if he were truly my friend he wouldn’t put conditions to our friendship. For many weeks I got depressed. Loosing his friendship was like having a dagger trespass my heart. Till today I still miss Izeah and I sometimes feel sad because he distanced himself from me. However, I am much happier today then I was two years ago when Izeah was still my friend because I confided inside Jehovah and I have friends today that love me, care for me and console me when I most need it.
Hope this helps, call out for me if you need anything else :D
