[bodytext] => You saw her every day. She was the one everyone wanted to be. Nobody understood, Not even me, Who was her best friend. Something was eating her up inside. No one knows why, But her emotions were on a roller coaster ride. She used to be so happy Her life was so carefree She knew what she was doing And what she’d grow up to be. Then all of a sudden Her life began to fall apart I wish there was something I could have done Just thinking about it breaks my heart. She used to be the one That I could call late at night The one that I could talk to If me and my parents had a fight. Then she became a stranger to me And all of her other friends As far as we knew Our friendship was at an end. How did we not notice? How could we not see? How could I be so blind to not notice What was happening right in front of me? She started to get skinny She was losing too much weight She was deteriorating At a very fast and scary rate. She was getting weaker and weaker As every day passed Then finally one day It hit us all at last. It was the day I came home from school And found my mother crying She told me that my friend was in the hospital And may very soon be dieing. How could this be happening? How could this be? What was I going to do Without her here with me? We learned many things that day Things we didn’t know Things I wish I didn’t have to learn But they were things that would help you grow. That night we all had to say goodbye And I had to watch my best friend die.
