Your smile is faked,

And I'm the only one who knows.



I keep all of your secrets,

And for what?



You yell at me for the smallest things,

And expect me to shrug and not care -

Which I've started doing.



It's so hard for me

To watch you laugh and carry on

With others;

Everyone except me.



I'm the "dark" friend -

Singled out because

I know the real you.



I've seen the darker side to your personality.

I stand true and loyal,

Unlike those others

Whom you fake your smiles for.



They would all gasp and run

If they -

For one moment -

Knew you. The REAL you.



And you know it



So we're "best" friends?

Is this how FRIENDS act?

I think not.



Best friends?

Best friends dont say that the other

Doesn't understand

What they're going through.



Best friends don't just show them their darkside,

But show a little bit of light -

If there is any.



Until you've healed -



Best friends?

No, we're not.
