Hopeless

by Brianna   Jun 23, 2006


You said this friendship would get better,
And it actually started to.
But then it fell apart again,
And of course, that would happen, I knew.

Words began coming out of our once silent mouths,
And I thought we were good again.
These once talkative lips are unused,
And once again starts the silent chain.

Sometimes I wonder if I should keep trying,
While other times I think I should give up.
Our friendship used to be great,
But less satisfying is our friendship cup.

You surely know what we used to be like,
Chatting, laughing, making fools of ourselves.
But things have changed now,
And dusty memories fall off the weak shelves.

Those goofy times,
They're in the past.
Though I had hope,
I knew they wouldn't last.

Nothing's the same anymore.
You wouldn't do the simplest thing I requested,
Just because it contradicted your new personality.
That blank page is now filled with useless ink, wasted.

So I guess its either I change,
Or I let this friendship fade away.
Maybe all the memories we had are long gone,
Oh well, they were probably worthless, anyway.

Words go through my mind,
Reminding me that you're still near.
Yet, you feel so distant.
You are no longer here.

Chills pulse through my body,
Just thinking of the past couple of years.
Much of the memories
Make me want to break down into tears.

I look at you,
Yet I don't know you.
You've changed too much
Maybe I've changed, too.

Maybe this is hello,
Or maybe it's goodbye.
This friendship seems very hopeless,
But I'm still going to try.
