for the best

I held you close
I stopped the tears
I forced away
All your fears

I held you close
So close to me
Hoping that
some day we’d be
More than best friends
Till the end

And yet I knew
That’s all we’d be
Cause someday I know
I will see
You slowly drift
Away from me

To the man
You really love
The man who will
Rise above
Any thing that I could be

But I wont watch
With tear filled eyes
I will watch
Behind these lies
And tell my self its for the best
