i feel the distance growing between us.
at first i refused to believe it was there. i trusted you that you would stay, would always be there. we still laugh still joke. we are best friends and we always will be.
but the abyss between us grew.
what had i done? why were you slowly moving away from me? was i that annoying? clingy? needy? was i too sad? too passionate? what had i done to drive you away? it is all my fault that you're abandoning me. what had i done?
you started to hang out with others to avoid me.
jealously consumed me. how dare they take you from me! frustrations would build only to fall crumbling to pieces. you are your own person, if we spend enough time apart maybe you will come back. maybe if i act kinder, less clingy, sad, less horrible. maybe then you'll come back
you stop talking to me unless you have to.
there's no one now. you were the only person i had for five years. the one i laughed with and leaned on. i didn't need anyone then, i don't need anyone now. i drive a wedge between me and everyone. i don't mean to. but maybe you where right to leave i can still build back what we had if i could just fix everything.
you're gone.
i cant get you back. you no longer wanted me. you left and i have to accept that i will never share a laugh with you, never pick you up again. i lost you and i don't know why. i have so many questions that will never be answered. I'll pass you by and smile remembering, but the joy I feel remembering will not be echoed back at me.
we where best friends, we both loved each other. at least that's how it seemed. but i got too attached. i didn't see you change. we where best friends yet you left me. you don't call. don't text. and you don't answer me either.i am on my own now.
Neo (by Dr Seuss?)
The lady kept smiling that smiley smile.
It was the smuggiest smile he'd seen in awhile.
He was sure she made fun saying he was the One!
He wanted to leave.
Oh yes, he was done!
Making fun isn't nice, he thought in his head.
She made him think twice and it filled him with dread.
That smug little smile she wore on her face
Gave him cause for a pause.
How it made his heart race!
I don't think it's me, no way could it be,
He thought once again while she smiled with glee.
The lady then pulled from the oven a pan.
She turned and then placed a warm treat in his hand.
She continued to talk with that smiley smile
Sounding like she had just walked for a mile.
She smoked cigarettes that didn't seem dirty.
She spoke lots of words and her words were quite wordy.
He didn't want to hear her, not any more
So he turned and headed straight for the door.
He went for the door but it wasn't before
He clumsily knocked her vase to the floor.
She'd spoken forgiveness right when it fell.
What sort of business, did she cast a spell?
She spoke wordy words as he got ready to jet.
He'd never heard such wordy words yet.
He left the strange lady and he wasn't amused.
It all seemed so shady.
He was no less confused.
Second Part:
The pretty girl Trinity thought that he was.
Why did she think so? It was because
The Oracle told her that she'd fall in love
In love with the One who was sent from above.
Who did she love?
It was him and that's that.
You could tell her no different and that was a fact.
It was him that she loved, it was already done.
And that was why she knew he was the One.
Inspired by the Dr Seuss challenge, but I could only enter once. Thought someone might enjoy these though. I'm a huge Dr Seuss fan and the Matrix is one of my favorite movies.
Gray skies
As the drips drop, and the plops never stop,
As I stare at the serene scene from my single window,
I hear the pitter-patter and the clever clatter against glass,
A soft tap tap as it dribbles fast, in rivulets, Oh!
The soothing soft rumble and the calming cool grumble,
Of thick gray clouds lamenting and letting life come once again,
A lovely litany of drip drip drip.
