Goodbye Dear Friend, Hello Stranger.

Goodbye Dear Friend, Hello Stranger.

A Poem by Mak(ayla:)

In all honesty, I do not know where to begin.

My heart is broken, but then again, I'm okay.

I've been through so much since you left,

and it hurts not having you here by my side, to help me.

We were like two peas in a pod, I guess you could say.

The Thelma to my Louise.

An inseparable pair, us two.

I remember all the times we would stay up until

the crack of dawn just laughing and joking.

All of the times, we would sneak alcohol over,

go out to our favorite restaurant,

sing our hearts out to the radio when our hearts were broken..

I've been hurting here lately, and I tried to call you,

but my guess is you were busy, but I never received a call back,

not even a text.

I tried singing my heart out to the radio,

 but it just wasn't the same.

I almost drove to your house,

but then it dawned on me that you weren't here.

So I went home, and sat in silence..

It's all I ever do now.

I can't believe the person that I thought I knew,

the one that I spilled my heart out to,

the one who made me laugh when I wanted to cry,

the one that saved me from the person I used to be,

has all of a sudden become a stranger..

The music isn't the same.

The drives at night aren't the same.

Staying up late, is never the same.

Nothing is ever really the same..

But I guess it all doesn't matter to you,

and it's okay.

I'm going to pick myself up,

and fix myself on my own,

but what I can only say to you now is,

Goodbye, Dear Friend,

Hello, Stranger.
