For so long I struggled
With trying to jumble words
Together
To write a poem
For you
For our friendship
But it has now dawned on me
That perhaps our friendship
Is one that is no longer in tact
It is fading
It is withering
Like a flower
After a long hot summer
Drifting into fall
A start to an end
I was in denial
I tried to ignore the signs
Every small text ignored
Every small shove aside
Every plan unfollowed
I felt it
I knew
Perhaps you did too
Our lives are changing
I always thought
We would make it through
But our friendship
One that has lasted half our lives
Is one that I never presumed
Wouldn't stand the test of time.
