Used To Poem by A H

We used to laugh like
We didn't give care of the world
Like nothing could touch what we had

You became cold, weird and distant
Your silence became louder than any words could
You stopped meeting me halfway

You left me worrying wondering
What I did wrong
Maybe you noticed but didn't care
Regardless of what it was
I felt it.

The distance, the shift between us
You avoided me
As if i were the problem

You talked to my friends
Played the victim
Made me believe I was the monster
When in reality it was you.
It's always been you.

I made mistakes too,
Maybe i cared to much,
Maybe I expected too much.

But Gosh how I miss how things used to be
When I was your best friend
Your safe place,
Your first call.

Now I'm someone who once mattered to you.
