Isn't strange how things always change?
Just when you think you have it all figured out
With a simple exchange; a turn of the page
Everything you know is turned inside-out.
I look at you now but I just can't see
That person that I used to know back when
Inseparable friends, you and me
So different now, because that was then
Now I see that you've taken a turn for the worst
Taking dumb chances without weighing the dangers
In everything, now, you jump in head first
Turning close friends into complete strangers
I'm telling you this because I worry for you
These mistakes you've made, you're making again
Repeating the past while you're starting anew
So different now, when that was then
I'm asking you, simply, to look around
And tell me if you approve of your change
Now we sit in darkness, not making a sound
But, in honesty, this all seems rather strange
Please just remember the fun days we had
So somehow we can go back to then
Making everything good out of bad
So 'different now' won't happen again.

Ok. You are a great poet. You express how you feel in a deep and beautiflul way. I am not criticizing your poetry at all. That said, I need to tell you some things. I want you to know that I think my decisions through before make them. I do my best to keep myself safe at all times. The reason I do is not because I am sensible, it is because it is what I would want the ones close to me to do. I will not be so selfish as to hurt those around me. However, I am clearly failing at this. For you and so many claim hurt feelings by my actions. For that I appologize, but I will not appologize for my actions. I will make my decisions. You will make yours. know you already understand that. I love you, and if you choose to leave this friendship, I will never fully recover. I just need you to see that I am the same person I was. I just know a lot more. I have not changed my person. I have changed my actions. I am happy, and safe, and the best of all ...free
