The Secret

Honestly I had a feeling
Before I even knew
The secret that you kept from me
Of what you were going through

I'd been nagging you for months
Worried something was wrong
But you kept asking me to wait
So I did, and I waited long

Then you wrote me a note one day
And it's words hit me deep
Asking me to never hate you
And this secret was mine to keep

You were worried I'd take off
When you told me you were gay
But I think I've made it quite clear
I'm your friend and I'm here to stay

It doesn't matter where you are
How you act, what you do
Whichever path you take in life
I'll be right beside you

I've known you since I was 6
Best friends since that school day
There is nothing you could ever do
To make me go away

I love you just the way you are
There's nothing for you to fear
I don't hate you, I don't judge you
And I'll still always be here.
