What Changed?A Poem by MetBySunlight
I will not give into your jealous-striken face 'Cause we're best friends but filled with disgrace, You should be happy for me, as I was happy for you When you walked through that door and said you've found someone too That was a while ago, and things didn't last, But please, don't dwell on that past.
I have found a boy I'm comfortable with, Hoping that love is not just a myth Maybe you've forgotten what happened in my childhood Or maybe you don't realise my post-traumatic stress How could we forget, that man in the bush, The event you blindly claim it affects you the most Though you were home, safe and sound While I was running for my life, away from that strange man.
So don't pretend everything is alright When we've just created a homemade plight You won't even look me in the eye, Especially when you told that unfaithful lie I miss it when we could laugh about everything And I miss it when we talked about anything What changed?
You should be a friend, a best friend like you once were I will never catch the virus you try to transfer, I hope in time, you'll realise your own virus Stop turning me into your own personal Cyrus So ask how I'm doing, like I do to you, Perhaps I'm asking for too much, I just want our break-through.
It's true, I'm always known for being mature for my age While you've continued to act on your personal stage People in their late teens understand how I feel They know this wound will take time to heal So why is it, at age sixteen, My friends all seem to be blind? Remove that veil so you can see, Remove that veil to be set free From the type of person you've turned into, I hope in time, something will imbue you.
