Breaking Away From the Shadows

You see me and I see you Our friendship is one that's very true We met a time ago Back when life was very slow When I left I saw you cry Bloodstained tears I wanted to die All summer I thought of you I lived in my shadows cold and blue I wanted to give up then you appeared in my mind “Wait a few days life’s always timed” I went to school and waited by the door You walked out and I withered no more I wanted to smile But it took me a while As you helped me I tried to help you Trouble came fast and true You left from red to blue Back to my shadows all so cold Tired of crying I broke the mold I wrote to you and one came to me I’ll be waiting for you just wait and see
