Severed

I wanted a friend
That's all I ever desired
And now
Strange things have happened
With no explanations
I can levitate
Really I can
And you
Your body lay frozen
In that hidden ravine
That body I nestled next to
When I was cold
I'll never know why
You severed ties once again
Every nine months so it seems
We shan't walk barefoot in the park
Any more
Why did you leave
When you clearly held out your hand
And beckoned me to take it
I knew you were falling fast
But I never imagined
The end
This way
Don't trust the amoral bastard
Don't trust the amoral bastard
This doesn't make any sense
I hope you're happy
I will burn the one book I own
Of yours
I have this strange feeling you had
Nothing to do with this
Yet confessions are not bold
The private dick will get to the bottom of this
I weep once again
Mourning the help you offered
Closing off self
Oblivious to those I used to touch
My inner sanctum
Franklin was right all along:
Three may keep a secret
If two are dead.
