Friendship Insecure

First, we believe in the each other,
but odds are that misconstrued whispers would play tricks... 
Taunt
Dawn breaks as we flounder in the misery of our thoughts 
Letting go of reality, struggling to reclaim it from the sun... 
Gaunt 

Sleeping and waking 
Dreaming of expressions blank on faces
Missing the point of conversations 
Insecure, we are haunted in our respective places  

Forget not the days of innocence 
before we questioned such a beautiful concept 
The idea of unbreakable bonds
Now seems so overtly insane to have kept

Fly away dear companion
Jump the clouds 
Find freedom from me 
Touch down on distant dust mounds 

Forget if you must
be absent in body, spirit and mind
Trust only these things 
I still believe, am present and leave no friend behind
