We was cool
like the best of friends
we shopped together,
talked about boys,
hung out at each other's
house
did things normal
teenage girls do

We went to parties together
collected numbers and
hung out late at night
then came home with lies
about being at each other's
house

We were there for each other
whenever one needed the other
we never let each other down
I would've never imagined
what she was going to tell me
one particular day

We were just sitting around
in the park
reminiscing old times
when she just came out
saying "I'm a lesbian"
right then I knew I
couldn't let my friend down

We sat there and talked about
this for what seemed like
a long time
I could have never guessed
that this girl beside me
had a thing for other girls

She needed me
and I couldn't deny
I needed her
I couldn't walk away from
a friend of 10 years
so I stayed and 10 years
later we are still
the best of friends

Yea , I never had a friend actually do this but if it ever happened I wouldn't leave them hanging like that. I wouldn't want them to leave me if it was the other way around.

It is sad..... how people feel a need to label themselves or others because they practice a certain lifestyle or look a certain way.  I like the actions of Friendship much better...  and a very good friend you most cetainly would've been.

Thank you , one of the most important things to me is friendship, and besides I like the type of personalities that gays and lesbians have. They are really cool to be around, I know a few in my school and they are just really funny.
