Dedicated to: Bethany







I sit beside you



Watching silently



I wonder if you know



In your sleep you look



Almost innocent



Almost kind



Almost pretty on the inside



Almost like a friend



Looks so familiar



Like the first time



I saw you



Smiling, laughing,



The only one to accept me



I was younger, more naive



I'm still naive



I'm still young



Look at you!



Look where your lies



Have brought you!



Look at all the



Blackness



Behind your eyelids!



Does it haunt you



In your sleep?



I can change that



I can be a friend



You don't understand



Quite how



That's fine



I can be your dictionary



Did you know?



You look so much



Like the facade



You dropped and broke



All those years ago
