i don't want to know
how you got this crazy thought.
he was lining up the attack,
it would have been quick-
he was getting desperate for my blood.
but you pulled me back,
you sheltered me,
you saved me.
now you're the one covered in blood,
your cold blue eyes don't seem so cold now,
more lost.
you're lost and it's all my fault.
i lost you.
i brought this on you,
i made you change.
your life would have been alright,
you would have lived a while longer.
you're lying down now,
in a ditch,
in blood-
yours and mine.
i cursed you with friendship,
i made you change.
look what i've done.
i can now see the posion of friendship,
the sacrafices you must of made to be with me.
you're looking at me now,
blood having an interesting contrast to your skin,
so pale.
you're so pale and thin,
you really should eat something,
but i suppose it's too late for that now.
i came along and changed you.
you would have been so better off-
without me,
without my friendship,
with only your mask,
hiding it all.
your eyes are clouding now,
i'm trying to stop the blood,
i really am.
damn tears keep getting in the way.
you're becomming cold again,
but not like when we were kids.
when we used to fight as enemies,
god,
that seems so long ago.
your eyes are closing now,
but not before looking up at me.
and then,
and then you surprise me for the last time.
you grin.
no, you smile.
an actual smile,
meant for me.
then your eyes close for good
as you fall away from me.
your lips move but you have no voice.
you'll be alright tho,
i made sure you would live.
you took the curse for me so i'll save your memory.
i've saved you.
your image,
my memories of you,
my memories of us.
you wil always live,
thru me.
i remember that night,
when you tried to tell me,
you thanked me,
i know.
i had gotten to know you so well.
i look up into the clouding sky,
i hope that's where you are,
as free as this breeze,
and mutter
"what are friends for?"
