I saw you looking at your feet
I knew it was the last straw
These weeks I’d watched you as you sleep and knocking at your door
To make sure you were coping
But not any more

Your face was blunt, your hands clasped
No smile escaped you lips
Wondered where my friend had gone
Swallowed by depression
You needed me I was there, standing by your side
My shoulder forever yours

You never laughed nor joined in
While we were playing immature
While dancing I would look back
And see you crying ever more
That boy you met's not worth it
Just show him the door
I want you back again

Now this is going too far
And I’m crying while I’m writing this
She’ll shut herself in her room
And think about what she missed
What she should have said and done?
Too much too much too much

Why doesn’t she tell me anymore?
Why won’t she come to me to confide
What have I said, what have I done?
Where is she now? Were has she gone?

I love you, and always will do, never forget that.

i don't believe i've seen you before so let me be the first on to welcome you to PIP.

amazing. i liked this stanzas

"Why doesn’t she tell me anymore?
Why won’t she come to me to confide
What have I said, what have I done?
Where is she now? Were has she gone?

I love you, and always will do, never forget that."

it's very sweet, don't pressure and maybe let her come to you. unless she looks. then you can go to her.

i liked that i can relate to this (well your friends side of view) maybe she needs to get help cuz if she is depressed it can be very serious, but don't feel bad she will come to you when she can. depression is very hard to handle b/c you feel like you don't really fit in and noone cares. don't push her but maybe try to make her feel like you love her, i know you do, but maybe she doesn't feel like anyone does. that is how i felt, but after it all came back and i knew no one hated me, they were all just scared of the way i was acting. don't be scared open up to her and she'll open up to you. WELCOME TO PASSIONS...
