A true Friend


I've known you for what seems like forever. When i asked if you'd hurt me, you said never. We were like the best of friends. When i questioned your loyalty, you promised it wouldn't end, It seemed like you were my idol, my star. When i thought you'd leave, you swore to never go far. It seemed like you were true. When i cried out my feelings, you said you'd help me through. But now i wonder, as i sit and ponder... What happened to that human being, who meant so much to me? What happened to those promises written in stone, that left me alone, long ago? I see you every now and then, after you had left me in the end. You look alive and well. And me, I'm in an agonizing hell. You were a friend that was never true. But if you come to me, I'll be here for you.
