I have nothing left of me
I gave them everything I had.
Yet I only had myself to depend on,
Through both the good and bad.
All too quickly I realized
That I just had to learn
That sometimes you give everything
And get nothing in return.
I always tried my hardest
To help them in so many ways
I always made sure to smile for them
Even on my darkest days.
I let them pour their hearts out
Gave them a shoulder on which to cry
And then out of nowhere they vanished
Leaving me to wonder why
Why did I open my heart so freely?
Was I simply just too kind?
Or was I taken advantage of,
Too vulnerable and blind?
I wish I could tell everyone
Who's ever had a friend
That you should hold your friendships close,
For you never know when they'll end
For over time, people drift
They grow apart and fade away
And your differences become apparent
You're suddenly night and day.
I always said it'd never happen,
I never thought this could be.
I wish I could tell everyone "Expect the unexpected
And don't end up like me."
Even the brightest sun will one day set,
And even the best of friendships may end,
What am I left with when I'm alone in the dark,
What is a person without a friend?
