For the past few months I've been feeling very sad, because my best friends are always so busy. I totally understand that, but does it really take much of their time for a simple 'hi'? I guess it does, because they ignore my messages. Either they reply with very short answers or just ignore it all together. It's the Christmas season (it was yesterday but meh) and I know I shouldn't feel this way.
I miss them. Out of all my best friends, only one person returns my calls and messages. He's greatly appreciated.
This is dedicated to people like me who finally gave up on always being the friend who reaches out to everyone.

Is it bad to expect?
Is it bad to ask how you are?
It's been months since we last spoke
Can you blame me for trying?
I get that you're busy
I can't help but feel neglected
You're unfair
Do you even miss me?
When I message,
You take days to reply
You even have excuses
Your reply is always short but I'm contented
When you message,
I try to ignore it
Of course, I don't and
I reply in a second
I'm sorry if what I'm asking for
Is too much from you
But does it really hurt
To even leave a little 'hi'?
You don't return my calls
You don't return my messages
Not even my voice mails
But I miss you, best friend.

Note: If you're already tired of what you're doing, just stop. It won't bring you happiness anymore. Sometimes you just have to go with the flow wherever it may take you.
P.S. If you're reading this and you feel guilty for ignoring one of your friends' texts or calls (especially when they just want to ask how you're doing), you may want to rethink your friendship.
P.P.S. This is friendshit.
