Ex-Best Friends

I wanted to say this,

but it was twisting my tongue,

drowning my lungs,

choking my throat...

I really loved you, as a friend,

cared for you,

enjoyed our time as friends,

but

you really hurt me

and I can feel the distance,

even if you say there's nothing wrong,

I can feel the chasm that split us apart,

I can feel the separation.

I can feel you move on,

with new friends,

while I'm stuck

in my head,

in my mind,

and

in the past,

the past where we were best friends,

hanging out,

laughing,

I'm stuck in

our

past.
