You know I tried,
In so many ways I tried.
I tried to be friends
I tried to keep in touch.
I tried to forget you.
I tried to fight for you.
God did I try,
And try,
And try,
And try,
And try.
You didn't seem to notice it,
You barely seem to notice me.
I tried so very often,
That I was surprised to notice,
One day I didn't care.
I didn't care if I got a text back,
I didn't care if I got a letter back,
I didn't care if you even wanted to see me.
I always expected my detachment from you,
To be like a tree falling.
Noisy,
Messy,
Painful,
Ugly;
But it was nothing like that.
It was like a leaf falling.
Silent,
Gentle,
Graceful,
Painless
