Forgotten Familiarity

Familiar faces all around me
yet there are none I can now recognise.
When was it things hanged? Was it you or I
who replaced our friendship merely caring?
Sure, we retain our phatic greetings, see
this isn't about hate, but a demise
with both parties no longer willing to try.
What have we done to lose our hearts' sharing?
These faces drift away to the crowded sea
fading like darkening light into skies,
losing their focus, I try not to cry
for the waves surrounding me are now staring
as those who once gave me comfort and ease
have lost desire to even appease.
