Losing My Better Half

You say it's just a joke

Doesn't mean anything,

But all your words poke

Holes in my already cracked heart.

~

I'm not opposed

To you having friends,

But they shouldn't

Take you away from me.

~

I hardly ever see you

You spend so much time with them,

Where did you go,

My best friend?

~

I'm branching out

Making new friends.

I don't mean to pout,

But I miss you, my friend.

~

All your laughs and giggles

Your frequent mood changes,

Your dancing everywhere we go,

And our many inside jokes.

~

Although I know

You don't perceive it,

This rift forming

Between us

Is slowly killing me.

~

You're perfect,

Beautiful,

Funny

And wonderful.

~

I'm cracked,

Broken,

Awkward,

And weird.

~

How can I

Not be selfish?

How can I

Be happy for you?

~

Despite what I say,

I'm afraid.

I'm afraid to lose you,

And of losing myself.
