The dying friendship of a soft woman and a softer man

22 days

22 days since i've been in your house

You have renounced me as your friend

And you left me with an eternal longingness 

A longingness that will never be fulfilled without you

111 days

Its funny how that's an angel number yet

That was the day i needed an angel the most

That night I spent yearning for a hand

A hand that would pull me up from the depths of a swamp of sorrow

And that hand was yours

Your hand saved me

And now that hand shows me nothing but neglect and impatience

But I have been patient

Patient with your mood swings and your abandonment towards me and others

2 days

2 days since i've cried the most i have ever cried because of you

All of this has been put on me and i'm expected to be rock solid

To be able to put up with the word “No” put in my face every day

But the truth is, im soft

I cant live without you 

I can't be myself around other people but i can with you

270 days

270 days that we've been friends in your mind but in mine

We've only been true friends for a couple days

And those couple days were the best days of my life

But now i must learn to be someone else

A someone that can appeal to other people

And now I must find a new person to spend all my days with

To spend every friday night playing wii sports with

To spend every monday after school with

To spend every night talking about whats wrong 

To spend every wednesday going to our favorite restaurant 

To spend every saturday seeing one our best friends

That happens to live right next to you

I have to do all of this because you don't like me

Not how you used to like me.
