It hits me on the head like a ball of snow, the dreaded word change,

It indicates to us, a want for a rearrange!

You wove your wand in and out of me,

And I became the person you shaped me to be!

Each day we claim to be our last,

Cussing like sailors until we part,

Yet we get together and make up fast!

Soon we realize it's hard to get our lives straight,

Until we have each other to set it upright,

Even with our differing flaws and trait!

The cycle starts spinning and we try to overlook our mistake,

We ignore it all until we can barely tolerate each other for our sake!

That I'm a liar you continue to imply,

You just don't know I lie only for you,

For us, to keep what we have going, alive and afloat!

Then again when I pull at all strings to see you,

You push me out and refuse

To show me the side you reveal to very few!

And when I say I love you, you break

My heart, claiming I'm doing it for old time's sake!

All the confidence we had is now a thing of the past,

It's all gone, replaced by a vortex that's vast!

Yet I refuse to let you go; I'd fight

For what's worth salvaging

From the disastrous wreckage that's us!

I put all the broken pieces in place,

But there are gaps in between that can

Be filled only by you, the technical man!

I cannot rebuild us with just these few,

For US cannot be spelled without U!

And as I'm telling you all this, you're somewhere else,

Sharing whatever we had with someone else!


A/N: Wrote it thinking of a friend of mine, and how our friendship could be salvaged if both of us put the effort, and abt how we aren't willing to actually do that, yet we want it to be like old times! We have outgrown each other, yet we can revive the lost connection, if only we tried. If only we did Try.

Okay, that's some deep shit, and as a lighthearted topic, there's this LifeRich publishing company for all those aspiring writers out there, that want to publish their book. LifeRich is a wing of Reader's Digest, so think of all that prestige! Holler me on PM or Twitter if you want more info or insight into that!
