When People Drift Apart

They come and go.

You were once close to someone

Later you find yourself drifting apart

Everything is different now

It doesn’t feel the same

This could’ve been a friend or lover

A relative or neighbor

You wonder what changed

Maybe it was you

Maybe it was them

Who knows what happened

But now they’re gone

They’re a figure of the past

You wonder why

It’s sad, but you miss them

Or the old them

The memories you shared together

The feelings you felt

It’s all too late

Your ego holds you

It stops you from contact

So you reminisce over happy moments

Of what’s left in the heart

You cherish them and move on
