Two-Faced Friend

Which mask do you wear tonight
With darkness breaking into light,
Showering a fool's delight
With merriment and mirth?
Will you be a trusted friend,
Musketeers until the end,
Chasing rainbows in the wind,
Blind to principal and worth?

Will you turn and fly away
Like some strange angry bird of prey?
Intent that all must go your way
You spread your wings and fly.
So unfaithful... So unkind...
Leaving one to bask behind,
Mellowing in pools of wine...
Wondering, why?
