The Breakup Before the Breakup

I can feel us growing apart

You don’t seem to care as much anymore

I still remember

Back in June

July

August

When

We were so excited

Like young teenagers falling in love

My heart bubbled like a cup of Vueve

Cliquot

On your looks and love

I would dote

Now I’m acquiescent about your dwindling feelings

For me

For us

You no longer use “we”

What happened?

In December you professed your feelings for me

In December you fell distant from me

I sit back and take it

Hoping for that summertime love again

When both of us were too afraid to say it

Hoping your dwindling feelings will bend


Now I’m afraid you don’t feel it

No more texting all day or random calls

Out of love we fall

I mean, you fall

Feeling like your feelings hit a wall

Am I not good enough?

Exciting enough?

To last

Because before you, this happened in my past

I stay persistent

Consistent

While love from the other grows distant
