Poem #8
I look you in the eyes and I don't feel a thing anymore
Love changed and it just doesn't feel the same anymore
It’s to the point where I stopped trying to force what’s not there anymore
Things changed and now dealing with you feels like a chore
How roles have switched and now I’m the one that you call for
I try to separate myself but you’re the routine I’m so used to
I pull away but I think I’m just scared of something new
That’s probably why I draw myself back to you
But things have changed and you’re not the person that I once knew
What was once one is slowly becoming into two
You notice the change in my behavior, my tone, even in my questioning
The transformation in the atmosphere leaves you trembling
Now you’re starting to do everything I once longed for in the beginning
You begin to realize that your timing is off and now it’s intimidating
The fear of me leaving has you stressing
My question to you is how does it feel?
The roles are switched and the thought of us isn’t ideal
It’s heartbreaking to you because my actions reveal that our separation is becoming real
What we once had is slowly becoming a closed deal
So again, how does it feel?
