As far as I could tell <br />You were perfect <br />You seemed normal enough to me <br />I got to know <br />What I thought was you <br />Instead it was a wall made solid around you <br />We got close <br />A little to close some said <br />That’s where things started to spiral <br />A different person to the one I knew <br />That’s what you turned out to be <br />My heart darkened <br />I was all alone <br />With no one to shield me from you <br />Staring into your eyes <br />I saw the person you once where <br />That person now corrupted <br />I had to stop it <br />I did stop it <br />And know I watch <br />To the person I once knew <br />Completely ignore me <br />To still be friends I would like <br />But its up to you <br />To make the stand <br />Swallow your pride <br />And admit that what I did… <br />Was right.<br /><br />Natalie Clyne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-person-i-once-knew/
