I try to forget you
Put the past way behind
But little did I realize
The road will still whined
The memories are still fresh
Yet fading just a bit
Alone in the dark
All the candles are lit
The sun still rises
The stars still shine bright
Each morning is a new day
So much within my sight
I move along like before
Climbing mountains here and there
Trying to look past
All the many times I cared
Yet the questions are still there
Hanging dangerously over the cliff
Wanting not to scream
While self-doubt I try to lift
I believed in you more
Than you believed in yourself
I believed in something
Stronger than wealth
Holding on to something
That was a lie from the start
Holding onto the visions
As the clouds seem to part
No matter what thoughts
Rolled through your mind
You left me,.... remember that
No greater happiness you will find
For I am not perfect
Yet more than you might know
My self-respect is greater
As the oceans will always flow
After everything that happened
You think anger would override
But everything just vanished
No more shadows I will hide
For I am not the one
That must hide and run away
I face my problems head on
And say what I must say
If you haven't figured yet
Running doesn't do a thing
Memories remain inside you
With each and every fling
The friendships that were created
In the life you left behind
The Bonds that were made
You will never again find
Too many cared for you
They were always there
Helping you through the times
Of your saddened nightly stare
I know more about you now
Than I ever care to tell
But that doesn't change my thoughts
You wear a mask and veil
To cover up the man
That you know you can be
To cover up the lies
Of the man you want to be

A friend, like a candle, is most needed in the darkness.
