Break Ups

Why do some break ups work out,
While others blow both parties apart?
Why do friends feel they have
to pick a side?
Why can’t they all remain friends?
What would it harm?
Why does hate come to be?
Whatever happened to mutual separations?

Why does he choose to ignore me now,
As if we have never been?
It was fun while it lasted, but not meant to be.
So it ended.
That doesn’t mean we have to act like we don’t care.
Especially when we know we still do.
But it was the time, the time to end.
The time to be over.

Why do the friends from before reappear?
Had they really always been hitting on me?
Why do I only realize it after my long relationship?
They come back as if they never left.
Do they realize I will need time?
Time to get over it, time to heal.
They seem to compete for me,
What am I, just a trophy to be won?
