Worthless to me

I have tried to be the good friend
to be honest, supportive
lifting you up when you are down
and listening to your insecurities

After all this time
it doesn't surprise me anymore
but it still makes me wonder
why it is so easy to cut ties

As much as I have loved someone
they are always disposable
ingrained into me from years
of moving at the drop of a hat

So it is regrettable, yet acquired
that I simply do not care
that I do not wish to be friends
with someone like you anymore

Like flipping a light switch
I went from caring about you deeply
to giving you no more thought
than that of a passing stranger on the street

I am conditioned to move on unaffected
you doubted me when I gave honesty
and for me, that is enough
to find you worthless in my eyes
