Off the Face of the Earth

You were my best friend.


I think of you often.


Where have you gone?


I feel a little lost now


I have no one to complain to.


No one to drive late at night with.


No one to make bad decisions with.


You left me behind like I was nothing.


Like I have no feelings.


You said you understood my depression.


It's not understanding, when you just turn your back.


Now a best friend is something I lack.


You left me alone.


I will rise above your childish schemes.


When you take a look back and remember me.


Don't forget I was there.


Don't forget every time you needed me.


Don't forget I was the one to call.


Because eventually you will be nothing at all.


You are hard headed and stuck in yourself.


I can't believe this is what happened.


You were there for six years.


Now nothing.


We would call, text, and Facebook.


You deleted, blocked, and forgot.


I understand you have problems.


Why can't you understand mine?


You have done this before.


It is not the first time.


I should have learned, I am smarter than you.


You broke my trust.


And you can't fix that with glue.


Take a long hard look.


I'm taking a step back.


I will not be there to pick you up.


I will not be there when you decide you can be my friend again.


I am not a nuisance.


You will not win.
