We were best friends. You were mine And I was yours We were inseparable. We shared dreams. You had yours And I had mine But they were compatible. We talked of the future. You shared your ideas I shared mine But they were includable. High school came around You changed I did not When we were young Your parents were alcoholics. You would tell me your fear How you did not want to become them. But soon the darkness crept It grabbed us both. I was able to tear free However You were not. We were strangers. You didn't look at me I didn't look at you We were irreparable. I finally reached out to you Asked how you were What you were doing Fine. You said. It sounded like you were trying to persuade yourself Not me But before I got the chance To ask how you really were You took another shot of that darkness. You took another hit of that darkness. And I took another step back.

The Darkness.
We were best friends. You were mine And I was yours We were inseparable. We shared dreams. You had yours And I had mine But they were compatible. We talked of the future. You shared your ideas I shared mine But they were includable. High school came around You changed I did not When we were young Your parents were alcoholics. You would tell me your fear How you did not want to become them. But soon the darkness crept It grabbed us both. I was able to tear free However You were not. We were strangers. You didn't look at me I didn't look at you We were irreparable. I finally reached out to you Asked how you were What you were doing Fine. You said. It sounded like you were trying to persuade yourself Not me But before I got the chance To ask how you really were You took another shot of that darkness. You took another hit of that darkness. And I took another step back.
