Broken Hope

Broken Hope

 

 

screamed at, shouted at

the most innocent of actions

turned into the worst of crimes

 

before I was here, those times were bad

I was alone, fighting my own battle

failing, on the point of losing

 

that's when you came into my life

 

the day I met you, I knew you were different

the way you acted, the way you talked

showed everything

 

it gave me hope

 

and one day, I told you, confided in you

told you about the hard times I had

the hard times to come

 

since that day, you helped me through

listening to me ramble on and on

helping me through my hardest times

 

you were a friend unlike any other

 

slowly a change came around

you were changing, growing steadily

more and more apart from me

 

I could count on you less and less

and in the end

I couldn't at all

 

you aren't me, you don't know what it's like

the closest thing to a best friend you've ever had

slipping, further and further away

 

it hurt
