what we promised would never happen is happening messages slowly being left on read we run out of things to talk about more everyday we awkwardly walk each other to class because that's what we always did we have 3-minute phone calls instead of 3 hour-long phone calls we cry about what's happening behind closed doors but it gets worse still we are supposed to cry in each other's arms, not about each other we unpin each other because we don't message much anymore im starting to forget how it feels to laugh for hours over nothing im starting to forget how it felt when we would rage about boys im starting to forget the genuine happiness i felt when i could see you im starting to forget how pure our true connection had been we said twin flames the flame is flickering we used to be too close now it seems like we were never close enough we promised we promised this would never happen we promised that we would never drift we promised that our friendship was one in a million so why why is that one in a million friendship crumbling we were meant to be best friends we were meant to wipe each other's tears and hold each other we were meant to laugh until we couldn't breathe we were meant to be attached at the hip we were never supposed to forget how it felt to be so close to someone so close that we never hesitated to call each other our best friend but now we do now it seems we are just neighbors neighbors who used to be really really close

everyone who had once headed west now runs with abandon to the east everyone who had once tried to change things now is content to only rearrange everyone who had once meant to be greater now is satisfied with only being better everyone who had once fought for something now stand for nothing everyone who looked beyond the moon now is willing to search among the stars everyone who looks for fire has been appeased with ice and they look to a god for answers - knowing he's the one who is damning them in the first place.
