I am nostalgic
About the future today,
If that’s even possible
I reminisce on our future parting ways
The excuses you will use
When you never answer my texts
And ponder the reasoning
On why the heavens
Allowed our worlds to collide
When all you were going to do
Was say goodbye, in the end
I dreamed of you last night
Even my subconscious would not lie to me
You didn’t speak to me
In the dream,
Either…
I am nostalgic about the future
Reminiscent of our impending doom
You could see it on the horizon,
Even during our fairy tale sunset
That always happens at the end
Of every movie
You could see it hovering just beyond the sun’s rays
But I was blind,
I believed you valued us enough
To want our friendship to work
Your silence, even now,
Is one of the final nails in our coffin
I miss you,
Why can’t you see that?
Why can’t you see how much you’re hurting me?
I never knew that silence could hurt
I only thought words could
But, that was before I met you
I’m fraying,
Unraveling
Like a poorly made sweater
I’m a mess of threads, of patches
That are trying to hold me together
Won’t you thread the needle?
Won’t you try and fix me?
But I’m too much for you now
I’m too much work
More work than I’m worth…
All those memories that we share together,
All for naught
It hurts to think of you
To remember all the fun times we had together
Don’t you remember?
Please,
Please tell me that you do…
But,
I’m only greeted with silence,
In return.
