I thought the laughter would last,
Believed the eyes would remain bright,
Hoped you’d always be a friend
Who would understand my pain
Withstand the strain
And see me through the stress.
I thought I knew you,
Believed you were in tune
With my not so erratic mood,
Hoped you’d stay the same
And not change your ways!
I thought you’d see through me
See the real me
Even when I chose not to,
Hoped you will alongside me fight,
Believed you’d for me take a bullet,
thought you'd without hesitation
Blow my trumpet too,
Believed you could read my mind
Even when from myself I try to hide.
I won’t say I won’t cry
Nor my tears hide,
I won’t say I won’t rave and rant,
I won’t say I won’t avoid your company,
But this I say:
With all the confidence left in me after all these,
Now that I know better,
The dent you left on me
Will awaken the silly me!
But rest assured, you fiend
I will always remain your great friend.
