Long-time friends are there when you need them
Showing up to comfort you when things go wrong
Or to cheer with you when things go right
I guess I am not as lucky

My longest friend does the former and not the latter
To only ever find a problem
Analyzing the fact that something, somewhere was a problem
The only real problem was me

Trusting my friend leads me to darkness
Feeling everything and nothing all at once
He doesn't care what time of day or events it's for
He treats them all the same

He has been with me for as long as I can remember
Knowing more about me that I know of myself
Maybe he isn't my friend after all this time
Maybe I was just him all along
