"When we weren't strangers..." By: Jules L. Gonzales

I use to know you so well,
But who you are know I can't tell.
You left when I was in a bad place,
Because I guess you needed the space.
So I sat there with my mouth closed,
But that's when I needed you the most.
Now I guess were nobody to each other,
I'm as scared to talk to you as I am of thunder.
And now I am just someone you pass by,
The pain and sadness that is being caused I can't justify.
How did we go from trusting friends to strangers,
I guess our trust and friendship became endangered.
And now when I pick up the phone to text you,
Tears form and fall and somehow it's all a sense of deja vu.
Because now you've become just like all the rest,
And somehow I'm not surprised because everyone in my life is a guest.
And missing someone this much must be some kind of art,
Missing you is like an envelope to my heart.
Believe me I wish I could forgive and forget everything,
But even if I could it won't fix the fact that looking in your eyes will sting.
I wish we could go back before all of life's little dangers,
I wish we could just go back to when we weren't strangers.
