Friend and Foe
I envy those that shine in the light,
Those who aren't afraid to fight
for who they are.
For every time I think it's time,
For every time I say that this moment, this one is surely mine,
The fear comes crawling back
The danger too much to simply pass.
For the girl behind the mask is not the same
As the little girl they used to know
And oh how hard it is, to tell the truth not knowing
Just who is friend
and Foe.
