What should I say? Words escape my mind,
I gave so much, yet you seem blind.
I’ve guided, stood firm, shielded your way,
Yet here we are, as trust fades away.
You say I shouldn’t care whom you call,
But isn’t it my job to care through it all?
I’m your protector in this chaotic tide,
Guarding your heart, standing by your side.
And now, your words—they pierce my soul,
As if my love was never whole.
You follow voices I don’t understand,
Breaking the trust I offered, unplanned.
Do you not see the truth I hold?
I trusted you blindly, pure as gold.
But trust once shattered is hard to repair,
And now, I’m left with a heavy despair.
You say others understand you best,
That their words feel warm, at rest.
But have I not understood you too,
In silence, in depth, in ways so true?
I remember the past, the betrayal, the lies,
When pain clouded your tear-filled skies.
I stayed for you, bore the blame,
Endured disgrace, carried the shame.
But this time, I can’t bend again,
To carry this burden, to feel this pain.
A brother I may always remain,
But your best friend cannot sustain.
Do you remember what your closest once said?
“It’s your mistake, not your choice ahead.
You need someone to guide and stay,â€
And that’s why I chose not to walk away.
But now you drift, you push me aside,
Closing my door, letting this divide.
Why return if you only leave?
Why build a bond, then make me grieve?
I told you to sever the ties that bind,
To leave the shadows, to clear your mind.
But here you are, repeating the same,
Turning away, fanning the flame.
If you return one day, as life turns round,
You’ll find a brother who stands his ground.
But the best friend in me may not remain,
For this heart won’t endure the same pain.
Still, know this—through every fall,
I’ve loved you deeper than words could call.
And though I fade, a shadow in time,
This soul will care for you, sublime.
So go, my dear, but remember well,
In my silence, my love will dwell.
And when the world grows cold, unkind,
I will always stay for your unspoken mind .
