We Used To Sit Near The Green Box


 


Chatting about stuff we shouldn't have.


We were all young, reckless friends, with a young, reckless friendship.


We used to sit on chairs of the corner house porch, telling jokes and stories, laughing uncontrollably.


We used to play soccer on the road near the mailbox, scoring and saving, missing and making.


We used to play volleyball on the driveway, some better than others.


 


We were friends.


 


But you changed, metamorphosing into someone you weren't.


We didn't sit by the green box or the corner house's porch anymore, we didn't tell jokes and stories.


We didn't play soccer or volleyball, but we were still friends.


Then, one day, you were a stranger.


Vanished was the friend we once knew.


We now pass by one another, exchanging a wave and a casual 'hey'.


But to me, it sounds like a 'goodbye'.

Approved.

 

- Replaced a comma

 

A decent poem which reminds us all about the friends we shared as children, but then age and real life tore us apart.
