I was too scared to confront
Dear Olivia,
Your name was the first to come to mind
but, mam, I wish it wasn't for this reason.
I was so confident that we'd never fall behind
we'd stay close as we lived together each season.
So I'll recap what these last couple months have been,
you've been running off with your new friend,
or could I even say girlfriend from the parts of you two together I've seen?
Every text to hang out as come to an end.
Like, I know I sound like an awful or selfish person
talking about how you've disconnected just before we graduate
but I told you while you were searching
that sacrificing yourself for a friendship was going to end in heart ache.
So here I'm writing this letter to you,
my future roommate, as you were once a place of solitude.
I've got to also admit that I'm a part of this problem too,
because I'm moving into a dorm with an even more cramped attitude.
I'm too scared of my consequences if I tell you, best friend,
that I feel invisible and I dont dare
to take that risk or take that emotional jump to mend
and so I guess, as far as college is concerned, I'll see you there.
