The Friend

I'm grabbling at the reigns
Trying to make sense of the familiar
I'm lost in my own heart
Things that were once real have faded

A girl in need of a guide
Both have failed and others take their place
Lacking in the one thing to make her whole
I see what you have and envy you for it

I pity myself and my circumstances
I hang my head low, feeling left out
I've been abandoned by the abandoned
The sick cycle continues

You cannot fill this void
I try to mold you into its shape
I need a friend there to heal me
You are the only Friend I need

I look to others in an attempt to regain control
Only You can control
I try to hide my insecurities and emptiness
There is no hiding from You

From the depths of my soul comes a hideous yell
You quench my thirst
Leading me to a peaceful forest
Where I lie in Your arms as you save me
