A Silent Friend
I used to observe every movement you made but you never notice
I was there too but you never saw
Shall I tell how you reacted when they forced you to do it
I was there looking at making fool of yourself
Shall I show you how much I have cared for you
I also wanted to join in when you were having fun
While I observe your move I happen to see the inner you
When they left you I saw an empty soul
I saw a person that was so shy
How I thought you notice my cry
Who said I was strong to handle it alone
When I tried to reach you
But I was so afraid to spoil what you called good times
They change you and you were changed
The pact we made was so quickly washed
Silent in this world we live in
Seeking for what can please the soul
Looking with the eyes of a child
Love written in the face
Smiling warmly as if things are flying
