Lilo and Stitch

Folder: 
Dedications
We used to 
call you Lilo
like the Disney character.
 
I guess that makes me
the Stitch...
that unraveled.
 
I fell apart 
when you ended
our friendship. 
 
I tumbled 
out of control
into strangers' arms.
 
It took me years
to come to grips 
with your absense.
 
But now, from 
time to time
I still think about you. 
 
We never spoke 
the same language;
I felt like an alien. 
 
In the 5 years
we knew each other,
you appeared to care for me.
 
But looking back,
I think you resented me
and I don't know why. 
 
So when I picked a fight,
I feel like you were
relieved to lose me.  
 
I was a burden to you,
and a weight was lifted
when I was cut off.
 
So I hope you are
living your best life now
without me in it.
