When you betrayed my friend
I was there
to feel the pain.
The surface,
always
so calm,
quivered
as you walked
away
My friend
bitter,
yes,
but loyal,
undemanding,
giving, too
When you needed
energy and warmth
my friend
was always your
first love
The season changes
your mood
swings
My friend abandoned
Sweet and cold
you said
My friend
steams and quivers
and you drink
Mountain Dew
instead
