| Have you been my Friend? |
| by France de Lara |
All I want is attention
From a friend, that’s you
To be with me always
In times of my troubles and blues
When we were still close
I used to be by your side
But now this time I need you as my friend
You don’t even tend to embrace me even just a lend
I was so depressed
I’m all alone
Longing that someone would notice
The burden that lies in the deepest part of my heart
Sitting on my chair
Wishing that you would come
Come just to ask the words,
“Are you okay?”
But you haven’t
You don’t even notice that I’m dejected
I’m expecting a lot from you
You as my friend that I can depend and rely to
But now I know
My expectations was wrong
Now I decided to leave you alone
Now that I found a new friend of mine
That’s willing to be with me all the time
So we spent more joyous moments together
And I’m thanking God I found the friendship that would certainly last forever
You say to your friends that you missed me a lot
But why hadn’t you shown me that from the start?
Now that I had the absolute attention I always yearn for
So why would I swap it from what you want: To be with me just like before?
You want me to be by your side again
And I think that it would never happen all over again
Then what’s the sense of coming back at last?
If the coming events can cast the silhouette of my past?
I don’t know what’s running unto your mind
It seems that you crave my friend that you both would be bind
You’re taking my friend away from me!
I’m sure you want it
To let me feel again, all the burdens and solitude I have felt before.
Don’t you want me to be happy?
To let me feel the camaraderie I desire?
WHAT’S YOUR POINT OF DOING ALL THIS THINGS TO ME?!
These are the questions bothering my mind
I don’t really understand to find
Look into my eyes and answer me faithfully
So my mind would be soon out of this seemingly-everlasting weary
“Have you been my friend?”
