Where’d you go?
Where did you go? What happened to us?
What happened to the memories we had,
The times we shared,
The adventures we had together?
I miss you so…
I miss the old you.
I miss the you we used to know.
I miss the friendship we used to have.
I miss your love and compassion.
It seems like it’s been forever…
Since we last hung out.
You’re always busy, or at least you claimed to be.
I’m busy too, but I can set aside time for us.
Are you tired of us?
Are you tired of the lifestyle you used to have?
I feel like you’re not happy anymore.
That you’ve been gone....
You say we’re still friends.
But friends don’t leave each other hanging, right?
I know you, or at least I used to know you.
You’ve changed, and I’m not sure if it’s for the better.
Maybe it’s just me.
Maybe I’m just freaking out about the lack of communication between us.
Please come back…
Because I’ve thinking about cutting our ties.
I was debating this for a long time.
We argue now.
Lately, I’m starting to hate you.
I hate the fact that we don’t have the friendship between us like we used too.
I hate the fact that we are drifting apart and you don’t notice.
I hate the fact that I care way more about this than I should.
So,
Tell me, no, reassure me that you’re still here.
Tell me that I’m crazy and everything is fine.
Tell me that you still care about us.
Show me that you want to keep me around.
I love you, but lately I’ve been asking...
Where’d ya go?
