My Turn to Express

Hey you! Now I know I am not the one who communicates all of my emotions, but I plan to do it today and you'll have to listen. "Why?", you might ask, because you owe it to me. I have been listening to you all this time when you shared your stories, laughs and sorrows. Now it's your turn to listen to mine:

You know what, there was a time before you came,

I was doing okay and things would've stayed the same;

I had family, friends and my career to look up to,

Everything seemed planned and sorted, but then you came and life was impromptu;

You started getting yourself involved in my life,

It was all so easy for you, but we weren't the same type;

Your traits, your nature was completely different from that of mine,

It was like you were the other half of life that I was missing from mine;

And trust me, I resisted, I tried to stay strong,

But you kept pushing and eventually I failed, that's when things went wrong;

You used to do things which I didn't like,

You said some things which weren't on the same line;

But still, slowly I could feel I had started to change,

I was getting used to us and our conversational exchange;

We became friends, I guess much more than just good friends,

They say opposites attract like the north and south pole of magnets;

I acted like I wasn't interested in your stories, like I didn't listen,

But truth be told, I was trapped in your prison;

I had never been so open with anyone,

I told you my secrets that I told no one;

Even back then life had challenges and setbacks,

But we dealt with them together using our own hacks;

Everything was going well until the severe cleft,

When one day you packed your bags and just left;

And left a huge void in my life's province,

Which I have been trying to fill ever since;

No calls, no texts, I understand you were pursuing dreams,

But we could've still remain friends via our phone screens;

Why! Why did you come into my life and then leave like that?

I have been trying to find my old self and how to live again after that;

You have always been good at expressing your feelings even after we went apart;

While I have been dying inside with the burden of your memories in my heart;

And we recently met again,

After all this time you are still the same;

You still carry the same smile and vibe with you,

And I realized, I still feel the same tickles when I am talking to you;

But enough is enough I said,

Please stop making me fall in love with you again;

Cause it was very hard for me to get over you,

And I don't think I can ever do that again!
