To a Friend

I should stop bothering you
Crying to you lifelong
I don’t say anything new
It’s just the same old song

But I can’t keep from singing
These lyrics of my heart
They control my everything
Like an ancient star chart

And you seem the only one
Who’s willing to hear me
And you are the only one
Who is not to fear me

You saw the places I saw
You know what is inside
You know of my every flaw
You see the things I hide

I was ungrateful, I think
You had much to give me
I didn’t give you a thing
So please... forgive me.
