Growing Pains

For the past two years,

I have put you first.

Before my friends,

before myself,

hell, I'd put you before my own life.

I'd die before a hair on your head was touched by the wrong person.

But then you grew up,

I think that's what hurts the most.

I'm older than you, but yet you've reeled in guys before me,

you've acquired a strong relationship with friends faster than I ever could...

And then you've left me in your dust.

But you have yet to learn the reason I haven't given up.

Which is probably what you want me to do...

Just give up.

But I can't.

I don't think I could fathom giving up.

Because we are family.

Meaning I will be the one by your side when your so called friends fail to do so.

But until you learn that...

I'm done inviting you.

I'm done texting you apology after apology,

in paragraphs that you leave on seen,

for something that is never my fault.

I'm. done.

I've grown.

And it pains me.

You've grown.

And it pains me.

As a little kid all I thought about was us growing up together,

and now we're not.

That,

that is what truly pains me.

But it's just growing pains, right?

I pray that we'll grow out of it eventually.

I love you more than words can be strung into a sentence.

And I know you love me too,

but us growing apart has pained my heart.

And I think only you can take those growing pains away.
