Best Friends

I see the fire in your eyes

I see the two of you holding hands

And I cry deep inside

Because I see a dark cloud coming

Your sky will start to rain

And I won't always be here

I can't help you

So gaze at him, take him in

Memorize the depth in eyes and the color of his skin

Because one day you'll wake up

And realize it was just a dream

He'll be gone.

 

I lie in bed, thinking of you

My once dearest friend

I can see your painted dreams

Star-crossed visions of tomorrow

That you hold so dear

But it's all over, and you can't see

That your ill-fated love ends tonight

So hold him close, breathe him in

Memorize the color of his eyes and the warmth of his skin

Because tomorrow you'll wake up

And realize it was an illusion; a deception

Of true love.

 

The sun is rising now

I'm sorry, but I tried to warn you...

...My time has come; I must go

Goodbye.

We sometimes have to question why some best friendships do not last forever!

Nice piece of work...

Great flow! friends are great, but other time they cause pain they can never take back.
