As I stare out the fog filled window

I start to see them

It can't be happening...

As I wipe the fog off the window

I see truth

Friends laughing and having a good time

Friends telling each other secrets

I feel myself shaking…

Why can't I feel that kind of friendly love too?

Why must I always look through the window to see the truth that can't be unseen?

Why am I always sitting alone as everyone is together?

I just want that love, too…

As I see it every day, I can't help but shed tears

No one sees my pain

Because they always have someone to share pain with

As I felt the rain on my skin

I would hear their laughter together

Then the tears came once more

"Why… why can't I have someone, too..?"

I ask myself that question so much…

"There has to be someone out there! There just has to be!"

I assure myself this every day…

"I… I… I just want a friend! That's all I ask for! Just a single friend!"

I fell to my knees as my scream finished…

As I tried to make myself stop crying…

There was a hand on my shoulder, and as I looked up

There was a girl there, with an expression of concern on her face

"Are you okay?" she asked

I could only nod…

"Do you want to be my friend?" she smiled…

As she asked me that, I looked up and smiled

"Sure…" I said, finally having a friend…
