Gift of a Friend

Am I a soul begging to be whole? Or am I just another ghost, Who is still searching for home? Was I so caught up in someone else’s dream That I completely lost sight of my own? Man I don’t really know. I just need to drive, To ease my mind, And find my drive again. I’m losing friends left and right, Because they barely recognize me anymore. We got so caught up In the lives we thought we were waiting for Just for them to never feel like they were enough. Like nothing we do could ever measure up To the expected expectations. Well how are you holding up, When your friend’s old messages Start sounding more vacant? Maybe it’s for the best. I shouldn’t stress myself over a friendship That started feeling more like a test. I can look past all the bad parts Because I was so in love with all the rest. But you and I Always had separate paths And I’m so sorry I’m no longer enough for you. I’ll always cherish the light that we had. The gift that was a friend.
