A Poet's Soul

I deserved better

Phone calls but no real conversations.

All your criticism , all your "observations".

& after all this time I made a big realization.

That I should just walk away.

Leave you today.

You are no good for me.

Such a bad influence, now I see.

I had to live up to all your expectations,

Made me see that I need a new location...

---

Because you only liked me when no one else was around.

& every time you were with your other friends, you didn't say Hello.

Didn't make a sound.

I was just your number 2.

Just an "in case" your friends dump you.

Your back up.

Another option.

1 foot out kinda deal.

& you didn't even seem to care how that made me feel..

---

You weren't hiding anything.

It was pretty obvious.

Crystal clear.

I just didn't want to admit it.

Those words were something I didn't want to hear.
---

But now I'm good.

Now I'm great.

I got some real friends.

& they're not fake.

---

All our laughs.

Everyday.

They always listen.

To what I have to say.

Pick me up when I'm down.

Draw a smile on top of my frown.

Comfortable.

Caring.

& loving.

They are my best friends.

& we have something great.

& I know you have seen it, but you can't come crawling back.

It's way too late.

----
AUTHORS NOTE:

Okay ...

So this poem is based of a real life story of mine.

Basically , me and this girl were BEST friends and were for a really long time until she kinda changed and started caring more about popularity and wanted to make new friends and dump the old.

She would always call me or FaceTime me but act weird in school and maybe talk to me if her new friends weren't around.

I got closer with some other friends who I've know for a while and some new ones. We are a really right group & I am so much more happier with them, and ya basically what this is about.

I hope you don't mind I shared a little life story as well.

Anyways I hope everyone has an amazing day!💗
