To My Best Friend

Holding on
They see me
Do they need me?

A best friend
Never any doubt
Never any lies
I know they are my all
But to them, who am I?
Through their eyes, what do they see?
Am I who they are to me?
Am I one that can't be lost
Do they see and love me
I cannot let go
But do they even know?
Do they know I love them
Do they love me too?
I need to know
What I am to you
What do you think, at thought of me?
Am I one so easily lost
Or can't you lose me?
As I sit and cry, day to day
Afraid this love will go away
Best friends forever, or just to me?
Or just friends will we always be
Do you share these worries?
These fears I know too well
Do you fear departure
From this friendship
Or is it but a simple though
A good friend, but not the best
Though I think of you so highly
Am I not the same?
Are we different characters
Playing a different game
I need to know
Do you think of me, as I do of you?
Am I over-thinking?
Or thinking too much of us
Is there an 'us', in your mind?
Or is it just of mine
I know you are my best friend
In my eyes, you shine
But am I just as bright?
Am I just your friend
Or a best one, to you as well?
This is what I need to know
Am I but another friend
For I am here until the end
But just a friend, am I?
I've have no reason, here to cry
For different people have different eyes
Different thoughts, different minds.
Two cannot be one
But the friendship, as I see
So mighty and supreme
Higher than the rest
You to me, are best
For this is what I see
But am I to you, as you are to me?
