Watching the sun rise You professed your gifts That you were a friend like no other Begged me to ask you for help When I had times of need That your shoulder was there When my pain overwhelmed me You would stand by me Not turn away in my hour of need That I could trust you And lean upon your strength Yet when my tears fell Only my pillow caught them The warmth of a hug Did not come from you But a hot bath at night Pain burning so intense Yet you did not offer your hand Now I know what friend you are No different the rest Silent when it pleases you There when only you need a hug So I lay to rest the illusion Of the friend I thought I had I still wonder if you ever cared As I lay out here in the cold But don't worry, it shall not be long Till the sun warms my skin again And you realize that this was not my loss... but yours |
