Tell Me Friend
*I wrote this in honor of my friend who has passed**
Tell me Friend,
What troubles you so?
Do you pray to your God in hopes he will know?
i can tell you right now, one thing for certain:
My truth is revealed once you pull back the curtain.
On knees you will pray
I'm begging and pleading.
On knees i will stay
Until they are bleeding.
Please
Tell me Friend,
What haunts your past?
Is it something you lost?
Your heart is shattered glass.
i can easily say this,
With my heart on my sleeve:
You're worth saving
that i truly believe.
On the floor where you're laying
My insides are screaming.
next to you I'm praying
Something, please stop the bleeding...
Friend,
Why didnt you tell me...
what was on your mind?
I feel so stupid.
I was so blind.
I'm taking this moment, even though it's too late
to say that im sorry i didnt realize...
your life was at stake.
