The girl I once called my friend

I couldn’t tell what she was thinking

I’m over here blinking, curiosity taking over

I wanted to be her friend again ever since October 

When we ourselves I never knew why 

We’ve never seen eye to eye 

Or say what feelings we had within

I’m not sure what she’s thinking

But I keep staring, unaware

That she would look at me with such a glare

I quickly looked away

I sighed, there’s no point 

The joy I was once filled with disappeared after October day

I kept my tears in my eyes hoping they’d fade

She was my friend, my only friend that day

I wanted to talk to her again, but no reply

She never looked me in the eyes anymore

I was broken, no I was literally torn

I always wonder if we’ll ever make up

Feels like we’re stuck,

In the past instead of the present 

Oh how did we ever become so distant? 

Class ended I was about to walk out

Until the girl I once called my friend put a paper in my pouch 

I walked over slowly, hesitating for a moment

When I got there I was in disbelief 

Was she really being honest with me?

I felt a sensation within 

I took the paper, held it in my hand, I slowly left the room… I grinned

With this experience, I would consider it relateable. I've lost friends along the way and that's something that's in fact normal in life. I used to think it was a big deal until I realized that things will in fact happen even when you don't want them to. I've gotten calmer both physically and emotionally -- mentally too but I feel that if I bring that topic up I'll get too personal.
