That Night a Forest Grew

You traded your friends
For steadier footing
To bury your faults in pride
The weight of your tongue
Was the wall you'd hide behind

Until you had finally realized
The people you knew
Had left and grew
And you were alone inside
But they already, forgave you

Take some time to realize things change
Who you were isn't who you are today
Worries and doubts bind you up inside
You hold your love in until the day you die
