Do you not see me?

I watch you laughing with her.
Seeing you as you kiss her.
Watching as you hold her.
Do you not see me?

I was once your best friend.
Now I mean nothing to you.
I thought I was doing great at pretending I didn't love you.
Do you not see me?

I had acted for so long.
It became routine.
I wanted so much more than friendship.
Do you not see me?

Finally I'm turning away.
Reluctantly moving on.
Still wondering,
Did you ever see me?

I'll love you till I die.
There's a place in my heart just for you.
Still I wonder while I try not to cry...
Do you not see me?

    It's very sad piece...
    "I was once your best friend.
    Now I mean nothing to you." - it's definitely very depressing.
    well written poem
