Hi there old friend
Would you believe me if I say that first line brought the tears?
It’s been a while since I’ve checked in with you
Finally doing it made me realize why
This wasn’t supposed to be a sad one
I was supposed to say
Hi there old friend, I see you’re finally doing good
But instead my hand stalled over the paper and I thought, I see we’re pretending again
I see you were starting to believe your own lie
I won’t say you’re not doing better
But you’re not as good as you thought you were and that’s ok
You’ll be ok
