If She Knew

If she knew it was you
Who on a date she would meet
Who's laugh and "charm"
Would sweep her off of her feet

If she knew it was you
Who would be her first to kiss
Who when she went away
It was you she would miss

If she knew it was you
Who would be her first love
Who she thought might be
Her gift from above

If she knew it was you
Who she could brag about at school
And who could get away
With breaking every rule

If she knew it was you
Who would promise to never drift apart
Who said they would never ever
Break her heart

If she knew it was you
Who said they'd always be together
Who said they'd grow up
And love each other forever

If she knew it was you
Who would ignore her when she wanted to be heard
And who would get mad
For something absurd

If she knew it was you
Who would make her sad
Who would suddenly dump her
When she had no idea you thought the relationship had gone bad

If she knew it was you
Who for whom she would travel so far
Would just dump her
And leave her with a deep scar

If she knew it was you
Would would hurt her in the end
Would she have dated you in the first place?
Would she have ever let the relationship begin?
I don't know if I can forgive you
You see
Because not only did you hurt my best friend
You hurt me


-This I have written for my best friend-

Wonderful story writing Isabel! It's tough to know if we'd take the plunge, knowing what we now know ... you've expressed this well for your friend. Very nicely penned!  

Best wishes,
/Kit

Thanks so much!  I've known that girl since 3rd grade, and she recently suffered from a bad break up.  So I wrote this in kind of a way to get out my anger the guy caused.  I know all guys aren't like that, but the ones that are are scum.  Well thanks again!

Bel, what a wonderful tribute to your friend. I as well as my best friend can relate. With your permission of course I would like to print this and put it on my wall. Things with my best friend and I aren't great right now because of him...I wish so much that she could see that I'm only trying to protect her. Thanks so much for the cry I needed. The tears refused to bleed...until now. Thank you soo much!!!!! Love Always~*~Jessica~*~

p.s. I will e-mail you soon, I 've just been busy. Luv ya bunches girl! Give your friend a hug for me too ok?

I have to echo the other replies in saying that you are a wonderful storyteller! This is a sad story to have to tell, though. It's hard to watch your friend be hurt, but all you can do is be there for her. Keep up the good work!

This is a great poem and it brings to mind The Dance by Garth Brooks.  If you don't know the song, basically had he known the heart break that would come from a relationship he might not have gotten into it.  But then again he would have missed the dance, and all the good times that came from it.  Great read as always..
