One girl walked through halls
Walked through them every day
One girl went to classes
Yet did not caper, nor did play
One girl with a lack of luster
Dullness in her eyes
Her very heart a calmness
A void, though none realized
Her life without a purpose
No goals to stride ahead
Everyday so boring
Nothing to like or even dread
There was no point in living
Or so she did so feel
Nothing to look forward to
Life, an unfair deal
And so one day she stood
High above a lake
Off a bridge she jumped
Her own life she did take
When people heard the news
They paused and looked around
"What did we do," they wondered
To induce her to hit the ground
Yet one boy stood apart
Tears threatening to spill
He knew what had happened
What changed her state of will
He was the one and only friend
That she really had
Then he made new friends
And decided she was a cad
So he left her far behind
Ignoring her each day
And her heart grew so heavy
And her mind began to stray
He had broken the special bond
Held between the two
His new friends cared not as much
Just the answers, not the you
The special bond between them
Had simply dissolved away
She had nowhere else to turn to
With no more reason to stay
Rumor says the boy did leave
From school, from friends, from all
And went to that very bridge
Staring down, as if enthralled
The words that escaped his lips
Were ones of sorrow and tears
"Im sorry I did this to you
Made true the worst of fears.
"I broke our special bond
Our friendship was truly lost
And if I had only known
The truly dreadful cost."
He sat there slowly weeping
But then a feeling came
The feeling of forgiveness
An entity with a name
The feeling warmed his heart
And with it came a smile
Perhaps the bond wasnt gone
But it would certainly take a while
Never would he be alone
Despite all desperate times
For he had someone always there
Someone that would always shine
That special bond persisted
Even through the death
But this might not always be the case
Bonds broken with a single breath
Dont let friendships be lost
Shattered just like glass
Like a house of cards
So easily to collapse
Let friendship be so special
Let it be that special bond
And dont let others sway you
In the end, dont be conned
