Friend Please Stay

With a pain in my heart, I guess we never know How much someone means, Till we let them go, When they’re no longer there To hear our plea, For help when our eyes They cannot see When we’re in our Dark corner And no lights about, They were there when A whisper was not needed But a shout To wake us up from Our sleepy slumber, The times they helped you, You cannot number, You realise now You hurt them quite bad They deny it and when They see you, pretend they’re glad But deep down you remember They’re the one Who told you secrets when the friendship Begun And that despite what they say You do know them well When they’re hurt or annoyed Is when you can tell, That sorry is just not good enough For them to hear but its too tough, Because the pain you created has caused a stain, You realise you pray for the friendship to remain Because as I said it’s not till they’re gone That you realise they were there all along They helped pull you out the pit when others looked away I miss you so bad…I want you to please stay….
