True Friend

By l mo

I wake up every morning
Wishing the day would end
Every day at school's a trial
Even with support of friends.

You help me get through the day
Without you I would fall
I've known you since we were young and innocent
Now look at the blood on our hands

You've helped me get through rough times
Just like I have for you
We've had our hard times and our good
But we've always made it out alright.

At night, when the sky gets dark
And I'm in danger and I break down
You're always standing there right next to me
To offer a shoulder I can cry on.

I love you like a sister
Even more than that, I'm sure
You're my best friend and always will be
Until we're lying in our death beds.

I know you've lost some people
That were very dear to you
But you still went on, day by day
And you hold your head up tall.

I don't know what I'd do without you
You help me no matter what
Just think of what we've gone through
In detention and Saturday school.

Tracy, Your the best
And I hope you know that, too
Your my flesh and blood
And truest friend.
And I'll love you
Through and through.

    This was a fantastic poem, showing your friend what you feel towards them. I have almost no criticisms, except for a question: was the first paragraph supposed to rhyme? If so, it would have been better to keep running; but the poem was amazing anyway.
