I said I'd always be with you
you said the same
but that's not how
it turned out to be

I'd grown used to your presence
the first person like me
always here, even if you weren't

it was just like I wanted them to treat me
I knew you weren't present at the time
but I'd still talk to you
I knew you'd get what I said eventually

and that made you the best listener
I could tell you anything
when I needed to tell it
because, though gone, you were always there

but my welcome wore out
and for the best of us both
you really did leave

now I can't talk to you
you've become disconnected from me
the direct link to you
has been shut off

and part of me as went with it

I may never be the same again
