BFF

My best friend
wraps his arms around me
he doesn't have the words to say
but that's okay
his ear is the only thing I need today.

My best friend
reads my face like a book
he knows how to hide
the truth we both denied
I clipped his wings, but now he wants to fly.

I can't shake it off
like the way I shake my head
as if somehow that means something
and saves me what I've got.

My best friend
wears his pain on his skin
he disappeared
and now I fear
there'll never be a best friend here.

My Best Friend
wraps His arms around me.
It's okay,
you're here, you're safe
and I'll still be here when you wake.
