To Infinity & Beyond

Are We?

Is this it?

Is it all we were meant to be?

We've lasted so long,

We've kept going on strong.

I really thought that we would make it,

Be the prime example of best friends forever.

But slowly you are drifting,

Getting farther and farther out of my reach.

You and I, I thought that we would make it,

With how much we both tried.

Though suddenly it's like you gave up,

Now, just me.

Only I keeping our friendship alive,

You left me for your new life.

One without your once bestie,

One where I am just someone you used to know.

Now we don't smile, or even say hello,

But only grimace or look away.

I don't know how we got here,

We were chatting like best friends but a month ago.

What happened, to us?

To you? To me?

Where did we go wrong in our journey?

When did you decide it best to leave me?

You knew this would happen,

You've known since the beginning.

As you said when this all started,

"We are going to drift apart,"

"We won't be as close as we used to be,

We probably won't even talk anymore."

Ignoring each other,

As if we are strangers.

But that's not entirely false,

Because now, I don't know you.

The you that ignores,

The you that leaves.

You ignore me,

I pretend not to notice you.

I guess that's how life goes,

I really wish it didn't though.

Do you think we have a chance,

To rebuild what we once had?

Or is it hopeless,

This is it, it's over?

I don't know,

You tell me.

Whatever you want,

I'll respect your wishes.

Though you'll always be my bestie,

I don't know how long I can last like this.

Just put me out of my misery,

And tell me,

Are we still friends,

Or is our friendship just a memory?

I still remember when you said

"You'll probably end up leaving me."

But in reality,

It was you who left me.
