For years
I've done all I can
To make people
Happy
Safe
Well advised
Would jump
At the chance
To help
Always there
And yet
I get busy
Not there as often
At the snap
Of the fingers
And what?
I get forgotten
Important news
I find out about
By mistake
Error
A grapevine
Hours
Days
Weeks later
I don't get it
What has changed?
Am I not allowed
The luxury of
Passing time
Drifting to the clouds
Being busy
With myself
Like everyone else?
As if I'm banished
From the friendship circle
A scarlet letter all that
Defines me now
Under quarantine
We used to be
So close
Now we are
So far
Why is it so?
Yes people grow apart
Must it happen though?
Did others
Take my place?
Can you see my shadow
Wishing it was still
As brightly lit
In your eyes
While you turn away
Frustrating
Sad
Sucks!
I don't get it!
But
Am I really supposed to?
