I've seen the tears of my friend
As she grabbed my hands and pleaded
"What should I do?"
The same questions came out of her
Over and over again
I was young,
I was stupid,
but I was betrayed,
I let her dealt with the pain by herself.
I was lied to by a friend,
As she clung to me,
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry"
The same words came out of her, repeatedly
I was not that young anymore,
but I was still stupid,
I again abandoned a friend.
As years passed by,
The friends I left, but never did they
Ever left me,
Instead, they were there
Still willing, forgiven and even forgot
All the hurtful memories
And stayed, when I chose to let go
So, I asked
"What did I do to deserve this?
These dorks, why they love me so much?"
Then I realised
As I was busy pointed out their mistakes
Angered for being betrayed
For being lied to
I forgot to look at my own fault
I covered myself in perfection
That I created, and thought I was perfect
But they never once blamed me for that
Until after I removed that mask
At that time I realised
They had already accepted me,
For myself,
So, "Why can't I?"
We had learned each others' faults
We had also learned each others' values,
Then I learned forgiveness, I learned to be loyal,
and I learned to love and to cherish,
As they do, for my being, they love
they cherish so much.
