You were always the social one

I just chanced to tag along

Never said much, I left that to you

You were friendly, outgoing, kind

I was quiet, closed-off, shy

College forced us together

Roommates, it declared

When you moved in, you came with 10 friends in toe

While I unpacked my army of books

Did you feel sorry for me?

Was that it?

We had our ups and downs

But despite it all, I thought we were friends

Staying up until midnight

I poured out my soul

I told you how lonely I felt, how alone

Not a single person to call a true friend

Not one but you

Sure, I talked to people in class

But you always brought them back

Our room was constantly filled with people

With your friends

I thought I could be one of them

I guess I was wrong

You were always the social one

I just chanced to tag along

I thought we were friends, I really did

Perhaps not best friends

But I thought you enjoyed my company

I thought we had memories, a bond, a connection

And then you threw it all away

In the cruelest way you knew how

Something went wrong, it's not important what

But you said you didn't want to speak anymore

You wanted to ignore me the rest of the year

I said it was ridiculous

We live together after all

But you didn't care

You didn't need me

You aren't socially awkward like me

Those were your words

Your cruel, spiteful words

Do you know that I cried?

Do you care that I cried?

I never meant anything to you, did I?

And to top it all off

You just had to remind me

That while you are so free and open

That while friends come to you like bees to a flower

I am alone

And it's my fault

I was never friendly or outgoing or kind

I was quiet, closed-off, and shy

I didn't make friends

I don't know how

I thought you would show me

That fate put us together for that purpose

But you broke my heart

And reminded me how I much I need you

And how little you need me

You were always the social one

I wish I never tagged along
