She not once offered a shoulder to lean on
as he always did
She never took the time to really get to know him as he honestly tried
She never truly listened; besides, he’s unable to come speak to her
For what HIS heart is aching for is she – she looks right through him, has no clue what lingers in his mind these days;
maybe she did in the beginning, when the friendship was first beginning…
She forever assumed he’d be there for her to come back to,
waiting patiently with a pretty box of tissues.
When she’s desperate for comfort or in need for advice involving
her “love lifeâ€
Or just someone to talk to, or not even that…
Someone who’ll simply sit with her when she’s feeling so awful - given that ‘that guy,’
the boyfriend, is the reason she’s feeling this
way, time and again regret fills her from within.
She used him as a cushion, a safety net; he was merely used…and gave all he could…until he had nothing left.
