See Ya

You changed.
And I didn't really see it coming,
I neglected it,
foolish to my own mind,
heart built with barriers,
steel. No entry.
You're no longer the friend I knew,
changed. 
To the person before,
it's like reverse, 
you become friends, then you lose them
over a simple time apart.
How pathetic it sounds,
but poor souls know it's real.
The bell quit ringing a long time ago
and now, friendless,
I begin.
I'm bound to forget you,
bound to erase you from my life
because keeping you close
to my heart
would be the biggest mistake I could make.
So go,
be with your new friends,
be social but beware,
because I don't listen to drama
nor do I even give the slightest interest in it,
I will call all the world, all the crows to revenge-you.
So I say this once, one time only,
before I reach for my revolver,
you best be on your way.

I absolutely condone these kinds of pieces. Massive release here. Just be sure to update your title to "See Ya". Excellent push back here!
