It's almost 4 months,
since she's been gone.
Her name is unspoken,
her smile haunts us...
we'll never know why she left.
Can't mention her,
or the whole town grows cold.
Love comes and goes,
sometimes dissapears...
but he didn't want to listen,
and begged for another chance.
Now our friendship is gone,
lost amoung the many secrets we hold.
Family problems get difficult,
being the middle child.
Bossed around and toyed with,
always yelled at or hit.
I couldn't bring myself to leave,
even when she yelled at me to.
It's been so long,
since I could talk to someone I trust,
everyone seems to start all the drama,
and spill my secrets.
Life is tough,
being a teenager is harder.
Sometimes it seems as if I could just die,
but somehow...I do get by.
So many things are rushing through my mind,
I just don't know what to do.
To go, or to stay, run or hide.
It's like a never-ending game of hide-n-seek...
I've been hiding,
but soon...I'll have to seek.

Oh honey
I also was a middle child too old to play with the younger brothers and sisters and too young for the older ones .But do you know what you will find in time that this makes you more special than any ot the rest . You know what it is you enjoy doing and you see he ups and downs dos and donts from both age groups . We have all had friends that have passed through time and we embrace the love they gave us and carry it on for them through time .Choices honey oh there will be some times you feel lost and justr want to stop it all but trust me it will pass honey and you will find such joys and wonders to come your way .You will find new friends just keep your eyes open and see them as they come your way . Dont close yourself off and miss the enjoyments you will have .
We all have secrets honey and trust me right now your harmones in your body are changing and taking you to new stages that will be awesome in time . I grew up in a family of eight and believe me I know what you are saying and I became the observer and learned so much . Expressions say a lot if you learn how to read them and it is your decision to not fight to know in yourself no one will take your joy away for the day just smile and move on .Im here if you need to talk more Im here

It's just been really hard lately...the firs tpart was about one of my friends committing suicide. There really isn't anyone to talk to because everyone knew her and gets sad when she's mentioned.
But I have to get to school...I will send you a message when I get back
