WHO ARE YOU AGAIN?

Everything has changed...

Not a thing remains the same.

Its so sad yet strange...

People you loved become people you hate.

When they change and decide they're better off now.

That turning into a stranger makes them 'unique' somehow.

You changed everything about you, your looks, attitude and personality.

Suddenly it feels like you are an impostor standing before me.

But what shocks me the most,is that you did it right in front of my eyes.

From the closest person to a stranger you became,before i even realized.

I want to believe its an act and will wear off in time.

But its becoming harder to believe as we go on in life.

People say its just a phase, that 'you should simply give them some space'.

But honestly,i don't think i can do it anymore,

You are nothing like you were before.

I keep hoping everyday that the real you will return,

But as days pass your attitude makes my heart ache and burn.

I keep reminding myself of the past we once shared... every-time i'm about to give up and blow.

Back when we were happy,when you actually cared... those long talks with no care for tomorrow.

But the bitter truth hits me and i realize this is just who you are now.

And i swear i'll try real hard to get used to it somehow.

But no matter what changes,whatever you say or do...

i'll always remember 'us' and never let this stranger make me forget the real you.

THE 'you' i loved... i really miss you.
