Old Friend

Old friend

you come again

to visit, to take root

and I can't help but

remember

everything about

you

the way you

took hold of me

stabbed my chest

with the worst kind 
of sadness

and the saltiest tears

you were my

friend.

the one who told me

I'm no princess,

I'm no angel 

wise, you were

and for many sunsets

and sunrises

you left me
cold, waiting

but relieved, 

that you were

away

i forgot of you,

made new friends

like the sun and 

stars

i became a star

myself, fell

in love with 

the sun, who 

made me 

shine.

now i can feel you

crawling up my

jagged, shaking

spine

into my thoughts

where you,

once again

tell me all the

wisdom you 

told me before.

and I fell to my 

knees, much harder

than ever before 

I let you,

you 

foolish

s**t

I let you

take the best

part 

of 

me.

I 

let

you

ruin 

me.
