AFRAID

Afraid, but for what reason?

It’s not that I’m afraid of treason

It’s not that I’m afraid of dishonesty

It’s not that I’m afraid of him ditching me

So then why am I afraid?

Why would I feel this way after so many years of near friendship?

Why would I be afraid of something ending it?

He is the one person who has stood by my side my whole life

So why am I afraid of that knife?

Tearing our bonds apart, the last thing I want

All I can do, is hold on tight

My best friend, he’s the closest one I know

He knows I won’t let anything break our bonds

But why am I so afraid of losing him?
