Unwanted Truth

I told my friend the truth today
She didn’t listen, only refuted
I tried to show her the light
But turned to the dark
She said she understood my pain
I feel she only took my words in vain;
There’s a cancer in my heart
Eating up the hope and love
As I know nothing will change
Anger becomes despair
Despair the ache
As I know what I’ve lost
Becomes the reality of fate
There’s no certainty, no change
She’s mad, and blinded
My words went over
Not through.
I am just the teller of actions
I can’t help her change
But why do I feel so down
Like I’m about to drown
When it’s no fault of mine
That she’s lost her shine
I feel her slipping away
Like the sands of time
As the boy draws her closer
As I’m left behind
I’m holding on to a stranger
The shell of a friend
With a new spirit inside
I try to save her
As she pulls away
My power is too weak
I can’t change her path
She doesn’t need me to
I’ve lost her to others
I hate that she’s lost her way
Because she’s getting farther away
My heart is breaking
As the waves crash down
I feel I am the one to drown
With good intention it’s left to me
To be the one to leave the key
As the world becomes nothing
I sink farther in despair
As I leave way for an unknown heir
I am the bearer of truth and feeling
Left with nothing
But in the wrong
And she the right
