Jacqueline R. Mendoza Poet Narrative

Notes About The Poem

I haven't spoken to her yet, my heart soften thinking about the poetry I did, it just happened this morning, I didn't go to my group because I was in pain. I had mixed feelings you know it's hard but I thanked God He helped me because of the prayers I do every morning after breakfast. I wonder what people will say. I don't know what to do, I haven't eaten lunch yet I guess I'll tell mom that I'll eat now for dinner, good luck!

Friendship

We are friends for… I forgot already, sometime almost 5 years or more than 5 I don’t know
She told me that she does not have a close friend
I thought I didn’t but there are my childhood friends
Wilma Claire, Charlotte, Louisa and Steph

Called and happily told her that both Basil and I will be having our vaccination for COVID 19
That I worked hard to urge Basil to get one too
Basil went back to me and told me the hour on the same place I am getting vaccinated
I called her to tell her my good news
I asked her to go and get one too

She said she already have it
So I said Huh?! Questionable, When
On March 25, 2021
In the city of San Mateo

Because I was very happy that we’re getting vaccinated
I just let it go
At night time
I was on my bed and thought about that phone call I did with her

Mixed feelings Surprised, Questionable, hurt, rage, anger, betrayed
When I thought about it
 Heart was crying
I was at rage

Mom told me to call her
Told mom that I don’t feel like calling her because I didn’t like what she did
Mom spoke to me and said that’s how she is
I thought about her illness

Reminisced that she told me she didn’t have any close friend
KABOOM!
Thought that she does not know how to be a friend especially closed ones
I forgave her

Told her how friends are to each other
That friends are like team members
Working on one goal, to win
With friends… to have happiness eventually joy

Forgiveness is the key
She’s not aware of how friends are like
Of course, she does not know how because she didn’t have any
Comprehension is what I did

Remembering that Jesus died because of the people
People are naïve
Jesus forgave people because He loves them
I forgave her because I love her
