New Friend


We didnt meet fast 

I never saw you approaching 

Approaching slowly like a lion

stalking its prey 

 

Prey is what I was to you 

Taunting

Playing games 

 

Games I never wanted to partake in 

In my mind , in my head

Who you were 

I know now forever 

 

Forever you are with me now

Thoughts

24/7 you won't stop

 

Stopping my day

Questions of if I'm alright 

But the question should not be for me 

It's for my new friend
