We used to be like sisters
and now your just my friend

we used to laugh almost all day
now your forcing me to pretend

I trusted you with secrets
I told you all my problems

and now I don’t even say a word
in fear you’ll turn it to drama

You don’t take anything seriously
Your bathing in your own immaturity

I feel like your talking crap on me
like you honestly don’t even care about me.

I loved you then.
and I still love you now.

But you’re no sister anymore.
now you just a friend to me.

ohh! i liked this one! i especially noticed how you made it easy for me to imagine what the narrator is experiencing, and the through the transition from sister to loose friend, i too can feel the trust and ease between them evaporate. good job. very relatable.
