I Gave Up On You

A year ago I held you in my arms and told you
Everything will be alright.
Months later they were.
As time went on friendship become distant.
Words shared became less.
I saw you not being yourself anymore.
Things are different.
You became selfish and out of control.
I didn't know you anymore.
It makes me sad to lose a friend.
But I can't stand by and watch you
Push yourself over an edge.
I let go, and I tried not to care.
I stand here and I watch you fall.
A slow painful thing to watch.
As time moved forward I realized
That less and less People are around.
Time has stolen everyone away.
Where did everyone go?
