A/N: A lyric poem for the pair that shall always leave footprints in my heart...

A/N 1/25/14: This poem is one of several I wrote last year in a small booklet. I have decided to expand this to include some of the other poems I wrote as well. I hope you enjoy!

"Tales of Two Friends"

They thought that it was funny

When they hurt an innocent kid

Upon my face they liked to pound

So I took myself and hid.

Hiding out here all alone

What's wrong with being me?

Sticks and stones sure break MY bones

And words certainly hurt me.

This life of mine, I had no peace

Rare solace had I found

In the library, where they couldn't reach

And I couldn't hear their sound.

Hiding in my books, alone

What's wrong with being me?

If you'd made an effort to atone

We could've been friends, you see?

I followed him, the blue stranger

So fast upon his feet

But little did I know right then

My hero I would meet.

He told me I was not alone

Nothing's wrong with being me.

So what if they shun you, li'l bro?

You're worth a lot to me.

He saved me from an evil man

That's where it all did start

Since then, many things have changed

But we're never far apart.

Now I know I'm not alone

No matter what they believe

Because his friendship I can call my own

The blue hedgehog…and me.


Delta Rae: Aw, thanks. Hm...I think maybe an hour or two? I don't really keep track. Maybe I should. Thank you. "Sweet but sad"-I like that.

Guest: Well, I imagine Tails was very lonely until he met Sonic. And yes, I like what you said about loving yourself. "You gotta love yourself before you can ever love me," as LifeHouse said. Love that song. :D Thank you.

Claire-Starsword: Aww, that makes me feel happy that my words made someone else have no words. Eheh. Thanks.

Tayler Jensen: Do I know you from somewhere? ... Heh heh. Thank you very much, and I will certainly keep going!
