i think

we used to be

friends

we'd talk every day

laugh and smile and

be ourselves

i could cut away

every piece of hurt i owned

when i was with you

i loved you,

i still love you

and you never quite loved me back

i told you how much i cared

you ran away scared

and it all fell apart

i think

we used to be

friends

but it was all so fast

such a blur

of angry lines and scared scribbles

i looked to you, glanced away,

and when i looked again,

you were gone
