The Friend That Will Let Me Go


You say that you'll always be here for me

But if I lety ou know my dark side

And see the uglier parts of me,

Will you still stand by me,

Or will you let me go

And watch as I fall and shatter?

 

Will you be sorry for letting me go?

Or will you sever our ties

And just stare as I crawl about

Collecting my shards and trying to close the cracks between the pieces?

The scars that spell your name

 

Will you ever remember me

And the happierti mes we shared?

Or will I be a deja vu in the crowd,

A shadow of someone you once knew?

It's better if you just forget me

And if I forget you.

 

"FRIend", don't make promises you won't keep

Auré

I'm just a tomboyish girl taking on the world one day at a time. I believe in making life count, doing your best, being yourself, and inspiring others.
