i miss you
March 4, 2013
The light is fading
I can see it in your eyes
Others think you’re happy
I’ve seen you cry
I know it’s hard for you
There’s something deep within
The light in you could shine so bright
But here it becomes so dim
I wish you could be happy
I’ve tried so hard, I’ve tried
I hoped you would feel wanted
But something in you has died
So now here I sit
Counting the days
I never wanted you gone
I wanted you to stay
Cause the whole thing is
I wish you were here with me
A friend without the other
Is never how it should be.

Why did your friend leave your school? It seems like your poem is about something more than just her leaving. My friend may have to leave my school and I was wondering if your friend had the same thing going on as mine does. I love the poem though. I feel the same way about my friend right now. :)
