I pass you by haughtily
my head turned away
refusing to acknowledge you
yes, you - once a dear friend
We spent so much time together
you always brought a smile to my face
was there ever a day we did not meet?
never ! not even one.
How did everything change?
Why did you become so cruel?
When did my fall from grace start?
Why did you snatch my smile away?
Mirror, mirror on the wall
you have always taken great pride
in declaring who is the fairest of them all
but now I take revenge in declaring your greatest weakness
Your weakness, heartless friend, is age
not age that is ageing but for
age that is young
and so, I pass you by haughtily.
Powerful lines. Hope your friend understands.
ReplyDeleteWell, even if it doesn't I have poured my angst out:)
