A Collection of Small Nothingness

grown apart p.2

You got bored
I completely understand that.
It's understandable.

I know it's not specifically ME
you were bored with
I think.
I hope.
That's what you said, at least.

Maybe we just didn't have a ton of things in common.
We always ran out of things to talk about.
Except clashing opinions.
Which grew into arguments.
and we grew apart.

Growing up is hard
Growing apart is harder.
Sometimes you don't realize it until you're too late.
And you're left out in the rain.
Without an umbrella.

So you stand there under the great, grey sky
wondering,
"How did it end up like this?"
Eventually, the water weighs you down.
Eventually, you'll come to the conclusion:
it just wasn't your time to shine.

But you will shine again.
We grew apart from each other
but soon the storm will grow apart from the sky.
Your judgement no longer cloudy with guilt and regret.
There will be only clear blue skies with
a new shining face,
Maybe someone new's, maybe your own.

Too many differences happen.
It's a part of life.
You grow up.
But growing apart is sometimes part of growing up.
When it happens,
It's not the end of the world.
The sky won't be grey forever.
Just for now it'll hurt.
Then it will all be okay.
