Maybe Dear Friend
Maybe dear friend the time has come
To gather your things quickly but silently
Or so it would seem
For those about you are paying you no mind.
To a clear thinker one so determined to leave
This path would seem so welcoming
A chance for a new begining
The chance to leave your burdens behind.
When one's dreams are placed
So far back into your mind
They seem unobtainable
But only to you.
For you are the one living
With them on daily bases
You are the one whom is
Second guessing your ability.
Now gather your thoughts
Put on a smile
Travel with haste
For you are not pasted in the present
As tho it may seem.
Let noone know of your intention
Let noone know of your decisions
Just act normal and go on about your way.
When he realizes you are gone
And he is lefted all alone
If you were not important
(As this is what it appears to be)
He will find another to replace you
And my friend it probably won't take him long.
She will be one that will praise him
One that can make him feel more of a man
For she will not know any better
But a real man he will never be.
But she will have to learn as you did
That somethings just can not be
Remember all the years you spent
Trying to make him be
What you wanted him to be.
