I don't understand how you can smile all day long but cry yourself to sleep at night. How pictures never change but the people in them do. How your best friend can become your worst enemy, or how strange it is when your worst enemy turns into your best friend. How forever turns into a few short months that you'd do almost anything to get back. How you can let go of something you once said you couldn't live without. How even though you know something is best for you, it just hurts the same. How the people who once wanted to spend ever second with you, think a few minutes of their time is too much to spare. How people make promises despite knowing how common it is for promises to be broken. How people can erase you from their lives just because it's easier than working things out.True friends will back you up and never turn their backs against you, come what may.
You may go around spreading the word that I've breached your trust and I've changed but here's the thing. You went behind my back and decided together to push me out, and not one of you had the decency to come talk to me to ask my side of the story. Maybe I've been the bad friend because you stubbornly want to believe your false assumptions and you've got too much ego to admit you were wrong or listen to what really happened.
But I have never, not once, turned my back against you. And I always,
always, had your back.
This is where I portray the many unfolding chapters of my life, in mute.
