Remember when you all told us
that we would still be best friends?

You didn't sugar coat it
and tell us that
nothing will change

because I mean
of course some things
were bound to change.

And we knew that.
I was prepared for some change.

But I don't even know
who you are anymore.

Not a single one of you.

And now I know
that nothing will go back
to the way it used to be.

We won't have those perfect nights
of getting us all together
and just

hanging out.

We've grown old and tired
of movie nights
and truth or dare.

We're doing what we said
we would never do.

We're drifting apart.

Us few that are left
can barely hold an interesting
conversation with one another

and yet

we all used to be
more than best friends
because

we were a family.


But just like in typical relationships these days
we've all gotten a divorce
and stopped loving
like we used to.

Everyone thinks
that you guys have
such a
picturesque
relationship.

I once thought so, too.
I admired how perfect
you two were together.

Things changed
when we got together.
How silly of me to hope
though, that we might work.

I at least thought when you told her
that I would have the satisfaction
of her breaking up with you.

But instead,
you resume your roles
of playing
the perfect couple.

And only I know you're faking it.
