I think something's wrong with me. I make friends, then suddenly I can't bear to be with any of them. That other me, the cheerful and honest one... went away somewhere.

~ Kiki's Delivery Service (1989)

One day,

That name will not make

make you smile anymore

Those memories will not

make you cry anymore.

I didn't say a name,

But someone popped in your mind. RIGHT ?

I knew i was different when people were putting efforts in their love life while i was putting it into my friendship bonds.

I lived a different life because i always invested my time and efforts in friendship bonds; for the betterment of them, for the betterment of us. Always telling them to study harder; teaching them concepts minutes before exams so we all could succeed together. Scolding them to get nicer partners; to look after their parents; so we all live a happy and comfortable life. Going an extra mile for our get togethers and meet ups. Correcting them in private every time they made a mistake and telling them to correct me if i made a mistake.

People say one sided love hurts. But do you know what hurts more? One sided friendships; where you invest so much of yourself and expect nothing in return except sincerity and they even deprive you of that. Everyone always teach how to move on from failed love life but nobody tells us how do we move on from failed friendships? - Sanawar Fatima Saeed

Slowly your chat head is descending to the bottom. Then I'll delete the whole thing and forget about your existence.

#Poetry #Friendships #BrokenFriendships #Lonely #Hurt

All of my poems tend to be hyper-focused on a specific thought or feeling, no matter how short and fleeting it may be, but it’s always an exaggeration of that feeling in that moment so I can amplify the power it has on the mind and soul.

Something I have always struggled with is investing so much, so wholly, in my friends that I see the end before they do - or worse I can see them lying to hide that they’re ready to move on to new friends, and I just have keep up the best friend act until they’re officially gone from my life.

Friendships exist in cycles, and no matter how important it is to have friends, many friends won’t remain your best friends forever. Like finding a partner, finding a life-long best friend is extremely difficult to do. You have to find the one that is just right.

It sucks that we miss people like that. You think you’ve accepted that someone is out of your life, that you’ve grieved and it’s over, and then bam. One little thing, and you feel like you’ve lost that person all over again.

She loved you, you know. You were the best friend she’s ever had.

“I know I probably don’t cross your mind much anymore but I hope someday you see something that reminds you of me and the things we use to spend hours talking about at night and then your throat gets tight and your heart skips a beat and you finally miss me back.”

— I miss you so much

[missinyouiskillingme]

They say when you are missing someone that they are probably feeling the same, but I don’t think it’s possible for you to miss me as much as I’m missing you right now.

― Edna St. Vincent Millay

At some point, you’ll have to realize that some people can stay in your heart but not in your life.

It's so weird when a friendship ends. I mean I saw it coming. I knew it was due. I knew in my heart it won't last. Of course it hurt when it ended no matter how much I thought I was prepared for it, it still came as a shock to me.

And even after all this time, I still miss her. There's a hole in my heart where she lived. Everything else has faded. My hurt, my anger, everything. All that remains is a faded memory of that pain she caused.

And you know what that's not even the point. It's the fact that she was my best friend and that despite having new friends, I still long to be around her. I still want to tell her all the happy news first. I still long to just randomly videocall her and catch up with her. It still stings when someone mentions her name and they mention something abut her and I have absolutely no idea what they are talking about because we are that distant now.

I hate her and I blame her for the end of our friendship. I hate how she gave up so easily. I hate how she just stopped caring. I despise her. Loathe her.

But I miss her. And it's so confusing and infuriating to have such complex feelings towards someone who is not even here.

Yet, here I am beating myself up over the past.

I miss the chats we used to have. Back before you got tired of my friendship. Or annoyed or what ever it was. I don't miss the way I always felt like I wasn't worth anything to you toward the end. For the last however many months I've not felt as depressed as I had the last couple of years of our friendship. But all the same I miss you. You won't see this, but that's okay.
