Random Question

Heyโ€ฆ 
Random questionโ€ฆ 
How are you doing today?

We havenโ€™t talked in a while
And I fear we are drifting away

I tell myself itโ€™s logical
We were not meant to be
But deep inside I wonder
Then why did we meet?

I know it sounds cliche 
Like a silly love story
But our friendship is important
So can it please not be

Not all relationships are fairy tales
And ours certainly is not
I thought weโ€™d be friends forever 
But it turns out we may not

I drifted away 
And youโ€™ve disappeared
At least thatโ€™s how I see it

On other days I wonder
Could I be misled?
Maybe I disappeared
And youโ€™ve drifted away
But who knows how you see it 

I tell myself itโ€™s logical
To stay far away
Iโ€™ll be safer
And away from heartbreak

You have not texted me
And I have not messaged you

There are days where I falter
And reach out to text you
Itโ€™s almost second nature
With the 24/7 texting
We used to do

Now itโ€™s been 2 months 
And I wonder if you miss me tooโ€ฆ
Though you probably do not
And I probably meant nothing to you

So I stay away
Convincing myself thatโ€™s the truth
If you wanted to talk to me
You would have
But thereโ€™s nothing I can do.

Hi, this was a really old poem, well not REALLY old, but pretty old. It doesn’t really mean the same thing it meant when I first wrote it but I still really like it so I decided to post it anyway. I can’t remember why I didn’t post it when I originally wrote it but here it is now. ๐Ÿ™‚

Until we meet again…have all my love and stay safe โค

Space

Thereโ€™s an itch
At the very back of my head 
โ€œI did something wrongโ€
โ€œItโ€™s my faultโ€ 

I am 
Terrified 
Of rejection

And now, 
Itโ€™s staring me in the face

Messages unread
Unanswered
Only my bubbles to fill the gap

Iโ€™ve tried again
โ€œMaybe Iโ€™m overthinking itโ€ 
โ€œIt was just bad timingโ€ 
But at some point
It becomes pointless

Too scared
To ask
To confront
Too scared of rejection

So the itch remains
โ€œI was too clingyโ€ 
โ€œToo pushyโ€ 
โ€œAnnoyingโ€ 

โ€œMaybe it all meant nothingโ€ 
โ€œI didnโ€™t pay enough attentionโ€

โ€œI oversharedโ€ 
โ€œDidnโ€™t listenโ€ 

Texts remain unanswered
The itch growing stronger
An added ache in my stomach

I think Iโ€™ll just give up now
Space
Thatโ€™s the answer

A void
A gap
Space

It hurts

The itch remains
Egged on by my fear
Maybe my pride
โ€œI wonโ€™t text firstโ€

Until we meet again…stay safe โค

Friends

What are friends

Are they people that you hang with even when you have doubts

Are they kind, souls who care and find time

To sit, talk and share

~

Are they people who swear that they will forever remember

Or are they just folks that never seem to be there

While you cry and surrender

~

The question is who are your friends

Are they loyal and true

Do they lie and cheat

~

However you see them

Maybe itโ€™s true

But take a look and youโ€™ll find that it might not be that blue

~

For there are always people who love and care

Who will listen and talk through the storms in your lair

~

So take the time

And take heed

Be the friend you want to be

~

But donโ€™t expect to be pleased

With everyone that you meet

~

We all have secrets

And we all have lies

That even our closest friends

Seem to be surprised
