curse this transformation
of my friends
that I know and love
to friends
that I knew and loved
all intimacy and emotion relegated to the past
tense and empty, unable to show my emotions
to anyone, nobody wants to hear it
just because they listen doesn't mean they care
and finding someone to listen these days is rare
so leave me my solitude and peace
and from this point on my caring will cease
your problems are disenfranchised
unable to elicit a response
because it's over now
I'll move on
and lead the way
to show you how
our bond does fray
let the rope break
for our sanity's sake
I'll fall into the ocean
and drown in lost emotion
