Left Behind

Once a friend held close,
Now a fiend betrayed,
Alone - isolate, lonely,
No longer a friend held close.

A void once filled,
No longer feeling still,
Each one the same as before,
Each one through the door...

No one held close,
A fiend now made,
No longer the touch of a rose,
Each day, a fiend betrayed...

Two friends, becoming one fiend,
I've given up, holding on no more,
Each time I've leaned,
Each time, they go out through the door...
