How We Became Strangers Poem by Micheal King

At first she seems like all
the only one at all times I'd
wish to call
She brought profound joy
to mine world,
that I'd lost myself to that
Rhythm that stormed mine soul.

Every day and every second, it's her,
Just her.
She's in mine every thought,
She's magic, she seems
like all
And when she's near,
nothing else matters but
the smiling sky.
That moment when the world
feels on your side,
When you'll feel the wind
with much delight;
Those moments when
nothing else matters but her,
until life finally happens
and for some lil reason
You get torn apart.


At first it feels like there's
hope,
So you keep in touch
But slowly, like the river flows,
You start drifting even
without seeing it so;
Then what used to happen always,
even every hour
slowly start to happen ones
in days
And what happens in days
slowly become weeks or months;
"sometimes when the rain
Showers;
In it, I'd hide my tears;
Safe.


And after many eons,
she's there again
this time differently,
I could only stare from
afar;
Watch her status,
And each time smile from
deep within;
Check her pictures,
but not ones say a word;
Then I start to wonder
Where yesterday went,
When we were
Inseparable,
When it felt like it was
Just us.


I wonder how we grew
into strangers,
and can only stare from
afar;
I guess it's part of life,
Not all relationships lasts
In time.
