No. 6

I used to think we were something. 

That we were this amazing thing. 

That we would defy all odds. 

Now I realize we were nothing at all. 

We had no labels, no titles, nothing. 

But we had names. 

We had dog names and lady names  

And those were important most of all. 

They were the start of everything. 

Well actually it was cars and medieval music that started it all 

But the names. 

The names were the start. 

They were the names we loathed 

But people called us them anyways. 

Sometimes, people are just stupid. 

Our talks took all my summer away

Our talks of books and butts and hotness and hot actors. 

Our talks of TV shows and silly little talks of nothing at all. 

We started as nothing and ended on a better note. 

We ended as a thoughtful thing. 

As a playful romantic facade that lasted only a few months

But was worth every moment. 

While I thought we were everything 

We were actually nothing at all. 

We came to school and I was ignored. 

It hurt knowing a friend abandoned me. 

But it's happened all my life so it really shouldn't hurt. 

She started liking you 

And I thought you did too. 

Until she told you how she felt 

And you shut everyone else out. 

You ignored me trying to help two friends 

And you've ignored her. 

It may hurt me to think about it 

But she at least needs an answer. 

I hoped we were something 

I wished for it every day 

And while we were actually nothing, 

We were everything all in all.
