Diagnosis: Doubt

Xalvazora

All I wanted was a friend, 

Whom I can play games with, 

And share my interests with.

 

I'm loyal like a Golden Retriever, 

But don't mistake my loyalty 

For weakness and gullibility, 

Or I will start questioning.

 

I think I may have romanticized 

Friendships to a degree...

 

You tell me you have health problems, 

And I believe you. 

 

You're allergic to water, 

I don't doubt that. 

 

You're prone to eczema 

Via stress, 

And I don't doubt that either.

 

But something you did 

Reminds me what your 

Ex-bff told me, 

"They're lying about their health." 

And "They're exaggerating." 

 

I'm starting to wonder if this 

Is true.

 

I don't want to doubt you, 

And I feel bad for doubting, 

But I can't remove the suspicion 

That you're lying about your health, 

And exaggerates what's really wrong 

With you.

 

I don't want to confront you, 

I think I won't ever confront you.

I caught you in a lie, 

But I would seem like the asshole 

For saying something about it.

 

So for now, 

I shall speculate more.

Then I will determine where 

You stand with me.
