"friend"

It took a comment to play it openly in my mind... where do i stand in this? I have a question to be answered with realism i guess... maybe my optimism is fighting asking for the opportunity to be life-like. Quickly, i hid the cynic came looking for my company Crouched behind hope, the cynic tapped... i shudder facing my unwanted friend...
