Colorless

True friend supports.

They would not lie, but lie with you.

True friend knows.

They observe, and they feel you.

True friend stays.

They listen, no matter how unlucky the day was.

I am always right,

But not for you.

You listen, but you don't care.

You see, but you don't know.

You stay, but you don't accompany.

I valued you as my friend,

I knew you valued less,

I hoped,

I wished,

I longed in vain.

I shared my colours,

And you drained them away.
