whatever helps them sleep at night
but you shouldn't lose sleep at all
it wasn't you who acted differently
everyone has their own life to live
so you certainly didn't blame them
when they chose to ignore you
that must've been a difficult time
yet here they are casting aspersions
do you think they're fully aware
just how long you've been in this space
holding on to things you are
desperately trying to let go of
it's great that they're at a place
where life has shown them grace
but if that's not where life is for you
it's okay to travel in the dark
as long as you see yourself in the light
don't take their words too personally
you're basically strangers at this point
maybe they'll see you differently one day
or maybe they'll never know
the same silence they blame you for
is the silence you suffered alone in
so if you never hear from them again
think of it as one less bag to carry
on your way to where you
always knew you would be
