Confession

This is my confession
I don't know where to start
This might be hard to listen to
But it's coming from my heart

I sat here for hours and hours
Not knowing what to say
Which words I should or shouldn't use
But I know today's the day

You know I'm always here for you
But it's time that I confess
For the past 3 months I've been lying
And it's causing me so much stress

You have always been so sweet to me
Never asked for things in return
You thought that you knew everything
Well there's more that you should learn

For the past 3 months I have been sick
Without a doubt in my mind
I was diagnosed with HIV
These words were hard to find

My life will soon be over
I thought that you should know
That I will always love you
Without me you will grow

~a good friend of mine is very sick right now but she will never be forgotten~
