Real Friends


I love you because you value the friendship we have

We go through adversity and you always stick by my side

I believe we will be best friends forever

You have seen me at my lowest moments and have celebrated with me at my best

Until senior year

You get a boyfriend and leave me high and dry

You believe everything he says and does

Believe I did something that I could have done when you were with your ex

You believe I am that shallow to seek for attention from him

Well you are wrong

I am not desperate

And I am not going to go out of my way to rekindle our relationship

I didn’t do anything “Because I Love You”

Why don’t you ask your boyfriend what he wanted to do with me

If you found out the real story you would be crawling back to me

Asking for my forgiveness

But am I supposed to accept your apology when you do

After you called me a snake and talked crap on my name

I know more about you than your boyfriend will ever know

You throw away a friendship that has been together for 4 years

For a boy that you won’t even be with later in life

I hope you are happy with the decision you made

Just know that even through our ups and downs

I am here for you “Because I Love You”
