Because of Star

im sitting in my room

my back against the wall

tears slide down my face

thought i gave it my all

 

i had a friend

or so i thought she was

my family tried to reassure me

but their words were not my gauze

 

she called me Shadow Knife

i called her star

we were best friends

no matter where we are

 

but three years passed

and we grew apart

then we fought

and it broke my heart

 

Star changed me for good

mistrust and insecurities became my fetter

i never thouht i would be free

until they came and made it better

 

my friends came along,

the ones i left for star

they reached out to me

even though i seemed so far

 

thye comforted me

they made me feel great

going back to them

felt like fate

 

two years pass and we are still alive

we helped eachother througfh our fears

demons and ghouls seemed to disappear

we loved eachother and dried our tears

 

they made me see that others need help too

so i went around and made new friends

never went astray and brouht them back

from meeting horrible ends

 

my name is Cherish

and i hope you see

that without my friends(or enimies)

i would not be me

 

if my friends read this

please i hope you knaow

we need to stick together

like a ball of snow

 

we are family because without you

i wouldnt be me

and i would never have known

 

i love you

 

im 17 years old

with a family online

they helped me see

that it was not my time

 

im nothing without them

and they are everything to me

they showed me love

and love is what ill be.
