Hey you there, my friend,
you’re not just a blank face,
in a fast-moving crowd of a hundred,
jostled back to that discrete place
where friends become merely acquaintances.
You know, my friend,
you won’t change my mind,
you should already know,
I haven’t grown sick of you,
no matter how much you insist
on thinking that I have.
No, my friend,
I won’t forget about you,
just remember that
I’m not always going to be
there to greet you first.
Yes, my friend,
I’ll try to catch you if
you’re falling down that spiral staircase, but
that doesn’t mean that the ending won’t hurt.
You, my friend
if you fall will climb again,
maybe a little slower than you rose before,
those stairs sure do spiral high,
however, you have support,
just look all around you,
at those faces,
they’re not blank
and so aren’t you.
