Death of Friend

Patiently, I wait for patience to break
Tapping my finger on death's table
Smoked another - waited, but to my disenchantment I was hurt
Again, you've unleashed the demon of your mind.

Razor sharp tongue cuts my flesh
My heart couragely missed a heartbeat
Alanis' music did not help releasing my anger
Your words added to the gap that was there all along

Emotions hightened but later killed
Smoked another - awed by my friend's betrayal
That friend was you and nonetheless my best
The betrayer of me and the giver of pain.

AFTER THE MORNING SUN HIT MY EYES
