poems i never meant to write

48 - drifting

i can physically feel
you drifting away from me

it started as little things
read texts
opened snapchats
missed glances

now
it seems like so long
since we last spoke

i feel a pain in my chest
when i say something to you
and your reply
is never anything more
than yes or no

you pass me in the hallway
i look at you
but our eyes don't meet
so we go our separate ways

i wonder what happened
why did things end up this way
with so much distance between us
when all i ever wanted
was you
