To a Long Lost Friend

I would cry but I won’t I will die but I don’t All the tears to shed, screaming emotions I hide. Like my sister you were one who always cared But now you’re far away. I want to cry but I won’t The hurt’s inside Why hide it when I cant deny it? We did not grow up together, you and I But somehow you had my heart before you knew me Gonna miss you in this journey What kind a journey to travel without a friend. It’s rough it’s lonely but I’ll make it when memories push me on. Just tell me one thing Just one thing that you wont forget Don’t forget the books we carried The hurdles we jumped The papers we wrote The weights we lifted The laps we ran We’ll keep running Because this track of life doesnt end now It’s just in a new stadium Where you get the credit u deserve. I have no gold, silver, bronze You wont get any blue, red, or white Just my trust and friendship Don’t stop smiling Manifest ur glory within Don’t forget me Cuz then I’d have to cry I wont cry and wont mope Least I wont let you see me do it Cuz u gotta keep runnin in this game And my tears wont push u on. I understand u Cant reprimand u for the mistakes u’ve made hurt other’s have hurt things gone wrong lifes not perfect but some things in this life are friendship is perfection in disguise perfection is friendship’s guise material shmerial o my god my god why hast tho forsaken friendship when there are no real friends left no people on this earth who are real people 2 me at all the real ones are dead dead in my mind in the sea why has they forsaken me?
