When You Were My Friend

I remember a time when we could talk, just me and you.
Now when I try, it doesn't work, my voice doesn't break through
The wall of problems you have, which I'm suppose to help you tear down.
But the only thing being torn down is me, soundlessly,
Because I can't tell you how bad it hurts, I refuse to show it.
Even if I did, you wouldn't care and you're too smart to notice it
Or know it. I knew that some how I would blow it.
And I know that I did because we barely ever talk.
Now it's like you're rain and I'm the chalk.
You erase me, you wash me away, you push me away.
And each time you do i think back to that one day.
The day we agreed that together we would always stay.
But I guess that doesn't matter anymore, today's a new day.
No longer do you have to act, you don't have to pretend
As if you like me or care about me 'cause that's come to an end.
Please listen closely because I will not try to mend our relationship again,
And I will not say this again.
I love you, and I will always remember you as you were
When you were my friend.
