Tearing a flower apart

Petal by petal falling

When its gone i restart

Every moment recalling

When you forgot my name.


I waited for you,

But you walked right past.

That moment I knew

That yesterday was the last

Time we would ever talk.


You changed,

I was no longer good enough,

Why won’t you explain?

I know life is rough,

But why abandon me?


You blocked my texts,

You ignore my calls,

What will you do next?

You’ve put up so many walls,

Between the two of us.


My mom wonders why,

You don't come over anymore.

She wonders if we let some guy,

Change the way our friendship was before,

She doesn't get that I don't know.
