For All The Friends I Left Behind

by Megan Hall aged 12

I struggled to find a way to say this
That really did my message justice
I sit in my room every day
And try to cry the pain away
But every day I miss you more
I wish it could be like before
I guess what I am trying to say
Is that when I start to cry today
I’ll be thinking only of you
And I hope you’ll think about me too
I hope we’ll be best friends forever
Because from a million pieces, you put me back together
You nurtured, saved, loved and forgave me
You rebuilt me stronger and then set me free
There were so many things I wanted to say
I wish we could have had one more day
Now everything you’ve taught me has helped me let go
But I think of you every day and I wanted you to know
