Keep going ..

When you talk to someone you hardly know in the beginning, and eventually find out everything about them. They’re not so much of a stranger anymore, but now the one you’ve gotten so close to. You can’t help, but let your guard down and let them in because you got attached to them. Soon enough, they mean a whole lot more to you than ever thought they would. 

Then it all falls apart. Everything feels like it’s going to hell. Pointless fights, arguing about nothing that will matter later on, but you still do. Pretty soon, you two grow distant from each other. As time goes by, less and less words are exchanged. You get to the point where it feels like you don’t even know who you’re with anymore. Then you break up, and never say a word to each other ever again. Like you two never even met. 

The only thing is, we did meet. We became apart of each other and our lives. And now look at us, we’re at the point where we can’t even look each other in the eye. The only difference between when we first met and now, is that I have these feelings for you. Feelings that don’t really affect me anymore, but they’re still here. Feelings that remind me of what we used to be. Now you’re just a stranger to me again. One that I happen to care about now.
