Poem
Three Little Girls: That's what we were, Standing outside the school, You, me, and her. I remember how it felt When you began to cry, The weighted look of sadness Reflecting in your eyes. You missed the place you'd been before, Where you had built a life, And here among such harshness, You had met much strife. A year later, two little girls we were, The other off on her own. We were two in love with the same boy, And a great friendship had grown. You'd tease me and we'd laugh, For hours that seemed like days, And even though it was you he chose, Our friendship did not go away. Two little girls: that's what we were, Friends until the very end. As the years passed by, More & more time together we would spend. Though maybe not as close, Were we, as I wish we could have been, Our friendship was a strong one, Unlike any I had seen. You never pulled away, Or said you needed space. You'd greet me at the door, We'd link arms, a great smile upon your face. One little girl: that's what I am, Now that you left me. I needed you so much, But I suppose you never really did see. Two friends, we are, torn apart, However, our friendship will live on. For true friendship knows know limits, The barrier an invisible line that has been drawn. You're still with me, here, even today, But your smile I cannot see. Though you pulled away, We're closer now than I could have ever hoped to be. Two little girls: that's what we are, For no one could pull us apart. Just like those still with me, You'll be forever in my heart. If I had known you'd leave me here alone, I would have tied you to my side. I knew not of your intentions, For the truth you chose to hide. You haven't left me here alone, I just long to hear your voice. You wrote "The End" to your story, Without giving me a choice. If I could, I'd hug you now, The way I forgot to before. You're still here with me, But somehow I want more. I want your laughter to ring out, Your song to echo through the halls, To see again the look upon your face when We went exploring and found only horses' stalls. I don't want to be one little girl, Why did our fun have to end? I want to be two little girls, Not one who misses her friend.
