MY DEAR FRIEND

You know I write poems
So here's the one for you
Girl I miss you, I really do
Since third grade we've been side by side
It's been a long and hard ride
Through thick and thin
You've always made me grin
Life, never easy, never simple
I've never really known
how to be on my own
I wish you could really see
How much this is killing me
I look all around
Just trying to hear one little sound
I've tried to say I'm sorry
It just don't work out that way
Maybe another day
You will forgive me
And just let it be
Until then I will be here
Trying to stop another tear
