The Gift of a Friend

The Gift of a Friend

I remember the day

That she passed on,

From one world to another

As I see her white wings,

Plink, a traitorous tear

Slides down my cheek

You sneak a glance at me

From the corner of your eye,

You see that tear fall

Then I lost my all,

It's the Gift of a Friend

That called you to me

Slump, I slide down to the

Ground, my hands upon my face,

My hair hides my emotions

I feel like I owe you so much,

You listen to me,

Take in all my troubles,

For you were like the big sister that I never had

You were my shoulder to cry on,

You were my diary,

You were my little box of secrets,

Where only I had the key

Even though you were there,

And I was all the way here,

You were still there for me,

You made me feel better,

Even though we were

What felt like

Hundreds of miles apart,

You still understood me with my emotions in a text

I smile faintly, a very weak smile

But knowing you, you won't care

No matter what

You are always there for me,

You waited politely until I was

Done

I tried to keep up

My appearance,

But 10 seconds after,

I didn't care

You told me jokes, texting them to me

Some were crummy, some good, some hilarious,

And some, just plain terrible

Until I cried of laughter

After all it's a Gift of a Friend

That called you to me

Nothing can

EVER

Beat the Gift, Not even sorrow, embarrassment,

Hatred

For, the Gift of a Friend is the most powerful

Of

All
