friend

to me, you came
you asked for my name
then you gave yours
we chatted some more

help

in class, you were struggling
so I started helping
we went over things together
and then you got better

clique

it was her, you, and me
we made a clique of three
then we welcomed one more
to form a group of four

bond

we had been
through thick and thin
we had so much fun
thought we would, for years to come

distance

my messages were sent
yet they were left on read
without me, the three of you
hung out in another room

secrets

a notification lit up your screen
curious, I took a peek
a message from one of you three
you made a secret group chat without me

denial

it could not be; we were close
at least, that was what I supposed
but why did you get up when I sat nearby?
you did not bother to say "hi"

confrontation

a letter, I penned
which you read then
we met in a chamber
you then ended it there

end

what was past was past
our bond did not last
you cannot spell "friend" without "end"
I have felt more free since then

from the depths of my mind, they flutter freeWhere stories live. Discover now
