"A Lost Friendship"
Dedicated to Courtney
We met many years ago,
And became good friends.
We spent time together, you know.
I hoped our friendship would never end.
We got along great.
We didn’t ever fight.
There wasn’t anything about you I’d hate.
At each other's house we’d spend the night.
Everything changed one day in band.
You moved to another chair.
It felt as if you slapped me with your hand.
My feelings you didn’t even care.
I tried to be your friend,
But you just ignored me.
A broken heart I wanted to mend.
I hurt so bad, didn’t you see?
I had so much anger inside.
I became depressed and sad.
I wanted to just run and hide.
All I wanted again was to be glad.
Then one night in bed,
I matured a great deal.
Ways to forgive became clear in my head.
I was going to get over this for real.
One night I talked to you,
And told you what went wrong.
Everything I told you was so true.
I did something I wanted to do for so long.
I got over what you did.
I got through that night without any tears.
That night I came out from where I hid.
For four agonizing and painful years.
I didn’t overcome this all on my own.
God helped me through it all
Not once did He leave me alone.
He never did let me fall.
