The end

(By Saara Kanana)

 I was so used to being the one you loved,

The one you cared deeply for and,
The one you were so proud of. 
I was used to what we had,
Our happy forever.

I often ask myself whether I was drowning you,

With my expectations of you and,

Somewhere along the process you got tired,

And somehow freed yourself. 

 I failed to accept the change,

 And so it left me heartbroken,

Because I don't have my bestfriend anymore, 
A lover only.

You were imperfect but so perfect for me,

 Now I don't even know where to look when talking to you,

Because it is like you built this thick wall between us,

And I don't have a chance in. 

I was so deeply invested that I  didn't see the pages turning,

I didn't smell the candle's burning out,

I didn't hear your footsteps walking away, 

Because what I saw next was your footprints in the sand.

I guess this is where our journey ends.
