He walks so confident among the crowd

Smiling and greeting everyone he meets

While everyone smiles back at him, but then

Behind his back their smiles would turn to smirks

Before him, everyone seems fond of him

Behind him, everyone makes fun of him

The day had come for him to know the truth

He realized that he was all alone

That he stopped caring for them, from then on

That very day everyone thought they’ve won

But none would ever know how much they’ve lost

A friend who’d put himself second to all.
