I was angry with my friend.
I told her so. It did not end.
It only made her anger bright
And flame on, into the night
For I was angry with her lies
No longer hidden behind green eyes
Every day more plain to see.
Who did she lie to most: her or me?
Now I question everything,
Grieving over that which made me sing.
We garner the love that we make
Yet with her, it was all fake
And so my love, my friend, is gone
Reaping the fruit of seeds long sown,
Bitter, watered by my tears.
My soul weeps for my friend so dear.

A, my soul weeps for you.
