I wish I knew how to be a good friend,
Because if I don't find out soon some of my friendships might just end.

I try to be there with them through the good times and the bad,
Because when they call me crying it ends up making me sad.

Why is it so hard for most of my friends to see,
That my whole life all my good friends have ended up leaving me.

All I can tell them is that I really do care,
And that if I were to lose them the pain I wont be able to bare.


I wish they understood that I can't take back mistakes I've made in the past,
And that I'll do whatever it takes to make the friendship last.

A life lived without friends is a life full of sorrow,
That is why I'm scared of who I might lose tomorrow.

There is nothing more I know that I could possably
do,
I just wish I knew!

  Lauren

This poem is dedicated to all the friends I've hurt because I don't know how to be a good friend. It's hard for me though considering my whole life whenever I've gotten close to someone they end up leaving me in some way.

That is so sad. I know what you're going through. Try giving them a copy of the poem you wrote. I'm not trying to tell you what to do, just giving a suggestion. Let me know what happens, k?

I know how you feel. Sometimes I feel like I can't be a good friend. Because just like you said, all of my really good friends have ended up leaving me some how. I didn't know what I was doing wrong. Eventually I realized it probably wasn't something I did wrong, but that these people just weren't meant to be my friends. Well your poem was excellent. Well written, great job!! Keep writing!!

Much Luv,

This really was very sad...I think that you should maybe give this to them to read...they might not feel like you care enough about them and this poem might just do the trick..i really hope things get better for you cuz im shur what ever it is your doing to loose these people  your not doing intentionally...im shur it hurts you as much as it hurts them..i hope things work out...great poem...

Hey guys...  you are probably not doing anything wrong...  sometimes the friends you think are your very closest friends drift away, this doesn't mean that you and they were any less of a friend, nor does it mean that you are a bad friend...  it just means that you have your differences and that you are growing up and growing apart...  it isn't a bad thing...  We are ALL  good friends...  well in here anyway!!

Melz!!

It sounds like you aren't haven't the best of times, and I hope things improve for you.  Your poem was very good.

Sorry to hear bout this and that you have to go through this.I can relate to this peom alot. And I know it aint the greatest feelin ever, but like everybody else said, I think it'd be a good idea to jus give them a copy of the poem. I'm not tryin to tell you what to do, but I really think that it'd do alot for them. Good luck.
God Bless,

This was nice but seriously the situation bites. I hope all gets well......maybe you just need to assess the situation a bit more.
