You let me fail,
you told me you would be there,
but you weren't.
You let my failures define me,
and didn't feel the need to defend me.

You let the wolves take me
and devour a part of me
that I had yet to learn about.

You called me your sister,
your best friend
but then one day,
I was no one.

You made me believe that you
would be there for me,
but when I made the wrong decisions,
you let me go with
the monster who almost ruined me
and my life for good.

Back then, I didn't know what to do.
I still thought you were my sister,
my best friend.

Then one day you went away,
and I never heard from you again.
It hurt,
and I felt relief.

I was glad you left,
it made me grow up
and made me chose the right people.

Even though,
I now see you on
a Facebook post,
I don't know who
you are.

Now you are no one to me,
not even a person in my dreams.
those friends who pretend to be there for you, but are only there for themselves.
