She

When you call her name
She runs and appears in front of you
Rearranging her life just for you
When you ask her for a favor
It's done as quickly and as neatly
As it could possibly be
When you need help
She's there guiding you
Every step of the way
When you need a friend
She's there, listening
And not judging you
But as time goes on
Her name wears out
And fades away to a
Dim glimmer
Now when you call her name
She's not there
When you ask her for a favor
She doesn't complete the task
When you need help
You're on your own
When you need a friend
She's not all there
As time goes on
She's blown away
With the rest of the words
On the page

Reality

I don't want to hear
What she just said
Can't it all just be my
Imagination in my head?
Of course not
The cruel bright ray
Of reality comes
And invades my dark day
I'm trying to shut it out
And stop the voices
But it's not working
In my eyes I see no choices
Only that blinding ray
Beating on my eyes
Forcing me to see the truth
And see no more lies
Trying to force back
My smile of pain
The tears in my eyes
Feel like rain
I nod slowly
Trying not to wince
As i feel my heart broken in two
But I will decieve you-I will convince
You that I am just fine
I could care less
That your feelings for me
Give me no stress
In your eyes
I'm your friend
Nothing more
So that's what I'll be to the very end
