I lay alone tonight
the dark embraces my thoughts
holding myself tight
something always goes wrong in life
willing to reach for my dreams
yet somehow they end in strife
holding back my tears
pillow clutched to my breast
i reflect over the years
with the love I've been blessed
tonight a stepping stone
I always become so depressed
your words bring tears to my heart
guided by my moon and stars
for once again we must part
no struggle left in this round
doubts of myself dissipate
my sobbing makes not a sound
slowly I drift off to sleep
our friendship a treasure
that I decide to keep
