Unpleasant Conversations

When you truly love someone
When you care about their soul
Sometimes
Sometimes
You have to have conversations
That may not be so pleasant
Because
Well, because ...
No one else knows them the way you do
No one else sees their faults, flaws, and demons
The way you do
See,
I never wanted that
That type of companion
The one that never rocks the boat
Because
They're afraid of a few waves
The one that always agrees
Because
It's easier to lie than to speak truth
The one that can't help me fight my demons
Because
They're too weak to fight their own
So,
Because
I never wanted that
I will never be that
Truly your friend I am
Help you win the battle I will
For me,
I expect you to do the same
So,
When I see you better than you see you
During times when you're hurting yourself
Those times
Those times
We will have conversations
That may not be so pleasant
Because I truly love you
And I care about your soul
