Don't you see...

Would it be shocking if I said I don't like you?
That is the truth you never wanted to realize
When I left I said I never wanted to see you again
I'll never understand why you reappeared in my life
Maybe it's your stubborness
We may have known us, good enough to be a couple
But the closer you tried to get, the more I refused
This path we were walking we couldn't continue
Difference, distance, don't you see?
We were never meant to be together from the start
A life together would lead to pain instead of relief

We're strangers, no longer as familar as we used to be
I cannot follow the way of your thoughts anymore
Your actions and decisions are so senseless to me
The guy I used to know no longer
Maybe I've grown up more than you have
All the time you seem to keep on the same road
You never wished to change your routine
But I longed for that, to escape this boring life
Independence, confidence, don't you see?
This distance between the two of us it too great
A life together would only hurt instead of heal

Did you ever asked me what I truely feel?
Did you ever showed interest in what I liked?
Did you ever wanted to understand me?

Do me the favor and continue your life without me
No matter what you try, I won't come back for you
The love I've been searching for, I found it
It's lying on the road I decided to go
Maybe we'll never meet again
We should go different paths for the rest of our lifes
This is the only decision for us both
Otherwise you would be hurt even more in process
Moving on, growing up, do you understand?
I never want to be remembered of the time with you
Leave and go on with your life
A life I no longer wish to be part of
A life without me


Authors notes:

When I wrote this piece, it was completely based on a situation in my real life. I used to have a very good friend for over three years and we used to get along pretty well until some things made me realize that we had completely drifted apart. After an heated arguement I was so fed up that I had to express my feelings. Somehow, our friendship still continued for two more years until it was finally buried.
