To my Best Friend

Shasta-you've been ignoring me.

Why do you do this?

Do you wish that i weren't here?

You're my best friend.



You've been my best friend

Since the second semestre

Of last lear-do you

Want our friendship



Lost in the shadows like

I always will be anyhow?

Or do you want our friendship



To last throughout my last

Two years of high school?



Look, hun-You cannot just

Start ignoring me and

Pretending I'm just a wall

You can walk away from.



You do know I care, right?

I mean, you do-but...

I cannot stress what



Such a good friend you

Were to me until now.



It just upsets me when

You don't seem to be

Paying attention to me.



Amie, you've been like

A sister to me-more than that;

You've been like a

Cousin who shares your feelings with.



Hun, you've been so good to me-

Why ruin our friendship now?



I wish you could be more open

Like you used to,

And tell me what you're

Feeling and stress to me



What our friendship is

All about now.



You know that I'm there for you,

Right, mon amie?



It definitely is true-

But what do you really feel inside?



Hun, think plz, about

What led you to

Ignoring me like the way you have.



Call me, amie, and

Tell me what's bothering you-

Maybe I could help-

You do know I understand.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this just today on how my friend Shasta and I were good friends. Now, she's just ignoring me and not paying any attention to me, and being my friend. She was supposed to make me eat all this year during lunch, but now she's not keeping up to her word, and that's starting to really scare me. I don't want to lose the tight friendship and bond between me and her-we're best friends for the love of Satan. Satan loves you!!! Okey off topic comment, but so true. Although I know better than to stress my feelings to her over a poem instead of a note, I couldn't help myself because I just didn't know what do do about it anymore. Shasta, if you're reading this right now, plz know you're not alone. CALL ME!!! And plz, don't feel offended in any way that I feel bad about you, I just worry about you a lot.

In this poem I felt as if you wer feeling like you were loosing your bestfriend. I know how that feels but I do agree with the other person in a sence that you can't expect them to burdon all your probs. They are there to support you and to tell you when you need it. One piece of advice is to ask them to take away something that you tresure everytime you don't eat like for instance tell them not to call you for that day or not to talk to you at school for the rest of the day. I know it sounds harsh but it will help you get better. I rate this poem a 5

YOu can't expect your friends to take the responsibility for your problems, eating a lunch.
YOu need to fight it out with others older and wiser than them.
It is too much for someone to be drug down by another person all the time who expects them to fix your problems when they can't!!!!
You will loose friends if you don't start to face your own battles and quit passing the buck to them!
