Friends Today, Enemies Tomorrow
You used to pay to buy
Now familiarity, so you borrow
Oblivion I sell you joy
You pay back with sorrow
Our shared stories today
Triggers arguments tomorrow
Our deepest secrets
Now fly in open windows
To my wide path
You’ve made it narrow
And with a broad smile
You release the arrow
To the smooth sail of my boat
Jealously, you stir a billow
Then console my grief
And laugh in the shadows
To even my nightmares
I bet you provided the pillow
Indeed friends today
Enemies tomorrow
