Thoughts of an Imaginary Friend

I stand to the side,

seen by none,

except for this special one.

I am many things.

A friend,

a protector,

the courage in a smile.

He believes in me

and that's all I need

to live happily.

But,

what about that dreadful day

when his parents say

'he's grown out of it'?

The day when

he's no longer lonely,

he can defend himself,

he takes on the world bravely?

That is the day

I cease to exist.

It scares me,

the idea of what

may happen that day.

But I find

I'm okay with the future I see.

He will be okay

because

on my last day

he will be

all the things he needed from me.
