FRIENDS

I am no good,

And no one cares,

Misunderstood,

No longer there.

-

It's getting dark,

The path ahead looks bleak,

A question mark,

Sanctuary I seek.

-

I have no talent,

No brains, no skills,

Losing my balance,

Living on cheap thrills.

-

To say I'll make it,

To say I'm good enough,

Too scared to admit,

To call on your bluff.

-

I'm just useless, worthless, a--

A hand--

-

Suddenly appears to smack me on the head,

I look around blinking,

"Shut your mouth," a voice angrily says,

The dark voice slowly shrinking.

-

"I know you'll make it,

Maybe not in the way you'd like,

I have this feeling, can't shake it,

That one day your words will change someone's life."

-

"You have incredible talent,

It's just you can't see it,

Clearing your vision might be a challenge,

But you have to believe it."

-

It starts to get brighter,

I squint my eyes from the beautiful glow,

"I know that you're a fighter,

Now ask me how I know?"

-

"You're one of the best,

It's as clear as day to me,

You just don't know it yet,

Don't hide from the world or flee."

-

My eyes abruptly fills with happy tears,

I can't see you, so why do you care?

Different voices speak as one against my ears,

"'Cause we're your friends, we'll always be there.
