The imaginary friend

Something was different today. You were here/ 

But you were gone. Where? 

I don't know the person you are now. 

You used to be so happy and light/ 

Now the dark clouds have moved in to stay. 

Was it me? Did I fail you? I used to be your clown/ 

but now you frown more then you smile. 

I'm sorry to go now. But the little girl I once cared for is gone.

So I too take my leave. I would rather fade and be forgotten/ 

then to look at you and remember what once was.
