you gave me satisfaction

From my own mind

Our friendship was like a signed contract 

The terms and conditions I didn't read

The words got smaller

As if you didn't want me to find out

That like a house

There were broken floors

Each time one broke

Another step down

The door was open

Letting strangers in

Our lives once made for us

Was now for others 

And just like that

You moved again

This time never coming back in


The author's comments:

This piece talks about my ex-best friend and brings attention to the pain people go through during these times. This work compares a house to a friendship and the way people choose without knowing. She was my best friend and will always have a special place in my heart. I love her to the moon and never back because there is no end to my love for her.
