We sat together but
Silence surrounded us.
You suddenly turned to me,
Told me not to make a fuss.I said I missed you,
You said you didn't.
I thought you were my best friend
But of course, you weren't.We sat together in silence,
Wondering what went wrong.
We wondered what changed,
Wondered why we hadn't talked in so long.I don't know what happened
Maybe it's a matter of time
But making someone feel this way
Is surely a crimeSomething changed between us,
You told me to leave it be.
It is worse now,
Keeping my feelings chained is the key.You said it was alright,
You didn't feel like what we had was the same.
You said it didn't matter,
I wonder why I always came.I was always there for you,
You took me for granted.
Maybe my presence was unnecessary,
Maybe I was unwanted.You left me behind,
Told me you didn't care.
I made sure, however,
To always be there.I loved you,
But maybe it was a lie.
I thought you loved me too,
But I suppose all of this was just a disguise.I'm leaving now,
I don't know when I will feel the need to say hi.
You don't need me anymore,
And I think it is time to say goodbye.
