Simple words just don't say it
Which one of us puts up the wall,
is it me or you?
Did I do something very wrong?
Just tell me what to do.
You act as if it's all okay,
but do you care either way?
I thought that we were friends,
if I knew what I was doing wrong,
I'd gladly make amends.
But then your tone is harsh,
you shun me far away.
Am I just a playmate?
I question everyday.
We used to be so close,
now we're near and yet so far.
Now you've got me thinking,
is this what friends really are?
A person I used to trust,
now inside I run away.
My world of colours,
has turned dull and boring grey.
You used to be the spark,
that lit up every day.
Now I can't tell which,
of us has gone astray.
I treasure your presence dearly,
but I don't know if I'm the same.
Because now I think
you see me as boring and just lame.
A burden at your heels,
that is what I seem to be.
I am the invisible dog,
that you never seem to see.
Just tagging right behind,
I am always there.
But in your perfection,
I am hidden in your flair.
You are the apple of everyone's eye,
the goal they set above.
You are the friend,
I grew to know and love.
