Old Friend

This is for my bff Kelley P.!!!

She's so strong as she moves on
from everything trying to pull her down.

She feels things
that no one knows about.
They don't understand
why she is who she is.

I know because I was there
for along time,
still sometimes I don't understand
but she has a reason.

She goes to church,
She loves all of her closest friends.
She cares but doesn't trust
for she's been betrayed too many times
to let it happen again.

She's my friend from long ago
even through our fights I still care.

She's my old friend.

sometimes all you can do is be there for your friends. you can't change their experiences, you can't change how they feel; how they believe. what I like here is that you do not ask that; there is nothing to say that you wish she would be different. It is an acceptance of who she is; how she is. And that is exactly how friendship should be.
