Should have known you were lying through your teeth
when you said "best friends means forever."
You know, I can say it'll never get better-
and I can never remember
why we even enjoyed each other's
Childhood's games with my best buddy turned into
his father "breaking up" with me for him
in front of my mother.
All night video games binge-sessions shifted into routines of
staying in my bedroom all night
Floating in the sea,
I’m happy
The familiarity of the ocean drowns me
with a feeling love
The sound of the waves
As I look at you
You look at me
We say nothing
We stand there quietly
Like strangers that meet on a busy street
As a thousand days pass by
We still don’t speak
