A dark shadow
has been cast upon your heart,
a friendship has come apart.

Memories now destroyed,
lost are the amable words
once spoken,
all in vain,
your heart is broken.

Lies replace the truths you held onto,
precious time you invested has been embezzled - ripped off you.

Trust was swirled up,
it was carried away
with the wind on a cold, cold night,
your crying eyes were forced
to see reality in a bright
new blinding light.

A new lesson
has been painfully learned,
the silver-lining is a new beginning...
You are free of a false friendship -
you do all of the agonising,
and the winning.

You hit rock-bottom
when you got off on top.
Yes! It's their loss!
But it's you that tumbled and fell
from a very steep drop.

~Loss and gain,
love and loyalty
in vain.

The night is still - frozen,
Goodbyes are forced, not chosen.

Dear someone,
Can you hear me?
Can you see that I'm here?
Slowly slipping,
Through the darkness.

Dear Someone,
Will you help me,
Will you stay with me?
And never leave me.

Dear someone,
Save me,
Before it's too late,
Before I lose myself,
Before I stay in the darkness.

Dear someone,
Please help me,
Help me through this,
Help me drive my darkness away,
Help me live.

Do you even miss me, mom?
Do you remember the way I smile.

You'll be facing an adult soon
Though you left me as a child.

Do you know where I am, mom?
I've no place to call home.

Sleep has lost its rest
And I'm feeling so alone.

Do you still want me, mom?
I'm slowly forgetting your face

It's hard to love you, mom
Though in my heart you keep
Your place
