I saw you today, and I was ecstatic.

But you couldn't care, less than ever. 

Hadn't seen you for ever,

I was so happy, to finally be reunited. 

You just seemed to have forgotten

Who we used to be. 

Small conversation breaks my heart,

But that is all we can do. 

For you have moved on,

While I was left behind. 

 

Looking in your eyes,

I know you don't care

About me any longer. 

I held on to the past,

But you made new bonds. 

In that new home of yours. 

You say that you missed me,

But I'm not convinced. 

For I know your secrets,

And I can tell when you lie. 

 

Making up excuses,

Just to get away. 

My heart is broken,

But you don't ever know. 

What you've done to me. 

You and the others are still together,

Still a while family.

But you left me alone,

To find my own way,

In this game we call life. 

 

I thought I'd make new friends,

And I guess that I did. 

But they were never the same

As you were to me. 

Looking back now,

I see that we were not close.

Not like I thought we were at all. 

We were never truly friends,

For you never liked me,

Just as I always feared. 

 

Now I am alone,

Never as happy as I thought I was. 

I see that it wasn't real, 

But that charade was so beautiful,

That it broke me to tear it away. 

The disappearance of our love

Makes me cry every time,

Every time that I think of it.  

Is it worse to have a false perfection,

Or a reality that makes me die?
