Gone Away

A fragile thing really So delicate, so small Shatters like glass If you let it fall Shards that cut Your heart so deep Make you wish For an endless sleep Trust misplaced Hopes too high Holding back Refusing to cry Like a night without stars Alone and lost Only wanting it back At any cost Left wondering why How were you misled Read the signs so wrong It was all in your head Blackness so thick suffocating, all around like a looming shadow No sight, no sound Cold bitter truth Your heart won't mend Nothing hurts worse Then losing a friend Icey indifference Last light dies Everything you knew Dark ugly lies And as I watch you Again walking away I wonder why I bother to stay Once so close How can it be A friendship lost Only a fading memory
