Strangers

If we're no longer friends, what are we?

i heard from a friend
that you once
told me
hi
how are you

but i walked
right past you
like you were
a ghost
a void

in fact
i never did see you
or hear you
but i'm not sure
i'd answer you anyways

what is hi
and what is how are you
compared to
four years of
secrets and laughs

you don't want to be friends
and i don't want to be acquaintances
there's no middle road
so we have to stay
nothing at all

This is so beautifully sad. It made me think of a personal relationship from years ago. Wonderful job!
