My Friends Hurt
Me

My nose is running from crying
I’ve just watched half of a sappy movie
Called Moulin Rouge
My eyes have turned a glossy blue
And I couldn’t breathe while in the
shower
I was crying so hard
And I prayed to God
I told him not to bring another boy into
my life
Not unless he was the one
The one I’m supposed to spend the
rest of my life with

I went to take my medication
And thought about over dosing
But I restrained myself
And took the normal dosage of two pills

I wanted my mommy
So I got into my car and drove to her
house
I told her everything that happened
How the movie reminded me of James
And it hurt me that he wanted Emily
Instead of me

How I pleaded with God about you
Even though not directly
You were meant to be with me, Mike
And I love you with all my heart
