It is strange Today You walked past me And I almost called out your name I had to stop myself Because You’re just a stranger now It was different It felt so unreal And strange Because usually We only pretended Not to be friends We would meet up after school By the blue board And the green trees And I would say “You take so long” You would make up an excuse And we would walk down Talking Laughing Listening to your BTS music You would be telling me about Your new Korean show How the main character was so cute Just before the gate I would walk slower I would give you a hug Do our handshake I would say, “Go eat” We both knew you wouldn’t You would wait till your dad got home I would text you goodnight And you would send so many hearts Now it’s real You walk by And I wish We were still us Because somewhere Between pretending not to be friends And our future paths splitting us apart Like pages from the same book being torn apart It felt like the universe decided for us We became strangers And I lost my best friend
