My best friend

Just because I love you today Doesn’t mean I will love you tomorrow The way I feel for you will change Just like the way you loved me changed I will always love you I just may not “love” you This doesn’t mean I still don’t need you Your voice Your touch Your early morning call to see if I’m ok Don’t be angry with me Despondent Harsh with your words Don’t  shut me out Go away Abandon me If I love you today I will love you tomorrow I just may not be in love with you And this is ok It’s to be understood It’s to be embraced Spoken about Speaking is how you fix problems Nipping them in the bud Please don’t run away If I say I love you But don’t want to make love to you This doesn’t mean I want you to disappear Going away forever Leaving me won’t fix the problem Abandoning what we have...had...once were This won’t make things better When your best friend comes to visit How do you feel when she leaves? Do you miss her? Her laugh Her smile her hair tickling your shoulder when you embrace Her morning tonics that make your brain work better Do you miss the way your body fit perfectly into yours when you would sleep at night Do you miss the way she would try to hold your hand when you were driving You always pushed her hand away But she tried every time Didn’t she? So why abandon her Your best friend She still loves you She may not be in love with you It has nothing to do with you Your looks Your bank account Your status I think she may have gotten tired of not feeling Being aloud to feel Or feeling as though she had to constantly try so hard to make you feel a certain way She’s still your friend tho The woman who kisses in public Rubs your curly hair while you drive Made you 10,999 omega balanced salads So don’t purposely try to hurt her She has scars all over from this battle From head to toe She just doesn’t love you the way she used to Because loving someone requires balance Giving and receiving No dear ....no....we aren’t speaking of currency I know it’s your favorite topic Try to pay attention here We are speaking of a balance of love Giving and receiving of affection Of time Of heart felt conversation and connection Connection far deeper than the ocean I know you see everything as an investment I’m sorry you feel that this investment was a waste I assure you it was not I learned so much What I will and will not allow You learned lessons too I just don’t love you the same way I used to Because you stopped investing your love into me It hurt at first I’m better now I just don’t love you that way anymore You see it’s not the way you speak to a woman It’s not what you do for her It’s the way you make her feel I Love you ~ your best friend
