Everywhere I go,
Everyone I see.
I feel like nobody,
Notices me.
I wished that they noticed,
That I was there.
Or maybe at least,
Showed that they care.
I can only take in,
So much pain.
Before I finally,
Go insane.
This heart of mine,
Can give lots of love.
Not only to you,
But to the people above.
I come into school,
All filled with joy.
But as the day goes on,
I get played like a toy.
When everyone walks out on you,
And you’re left with zero.
I’ll walk right inside,
And become your greatest hero.
That is the meaning,
Of a true friend.
To be here with you,
Until the very end.
Invisible
Friends
Friends are great
They’re always there for you,
They never hate.
Friends are trust worthy.
Friends are like cement never leaving,
Friends are the light in the darkness.
They never stop believing.
Friends have ups and they have downs,
Friends forgive, forget, and forever stand.
They always help you,
No matter what may be at hand.
Friends live forever in your eyes.
Standing strong by your side,
But most of all friends never say goodbye.
Then
Remember then,
Dreaming of when
Our childhood fears
Would be gone with the years.
Now we look at the past
Wondering why it didn’t last.
Days in the hot sun
Always having fun.
Going for a ride
Letting the bike glide.
Biking, sledding,
Swimming, swinging,
Days of old
Never to be sold.
Signs of change
Widely range.
Moving away
No more play.
Friends forever
Talk almost never.
Through the years,
Our lives shift gears.
Laughter, smiles,
Fears, miles,
Distant souls
Drifting goals.
Friendship the art
Connects our hearts.
Now that it is when
We dream of Then.
Stick a fork in me, I’m done!
Ode to the Lehnert name,
The Lehnert name is dead.
For asleep in the other room,
Lays three Princesses in bed.
With earrings in their ears,
And polish on their pinkies.
I checked and checked and checked again,
But couldn’t find their winkies.
They’re all a little different,
But I love them just the same.
When it comes to their genetics,
There is no one else to blame.
My little swimmers swam,
But came up somewhat short.
So now I play in castles,
Instead of army forts.
They’re gonna grow up fast,
But it should be lots of fun.
When it comes the time for them to date,
I will buy a bigger gun.
So it’s time for me to hang it up,
It’s time for me to go.
But no one said I couldn’t teach,
Them how to catch and throw.
On The Wings of A Butterfly
Your friendship is special
Like the flowers that bloom,
Or when a butterfly emerges
From within its cocoon…
You remind me of that butterfly,
Loving and free,
Bright and colorful,
For the world to see…
We will share sunshine and rainbows;
Sometimes, the rain and the snow;
We’ll stand together through it,
While the cold winds blow…
When the time is right,
We won’t stop to ask "Why?"
Our friendship will take flight
On the wings of a butterfly …
Friends Forever
We laugh so hard we cry.
We reminisce about past days.
The memories we’ve shared since we were in the sixth grade.
No one could ever know me the way you do.
They would never understand the things you knew.
We’ve acted so crazy.
Life’s gone by so fast.
What’s happened in these last six years?
I’m scared of the future; I’m scared of losing the past.
Life will go on and we’ll both find our way,
But I will never let you face the unknown.
No matter where we end up.
Even thousands of miles from home.
I want you to know,
You’ll never have to be alone.
Why?
Please God, tell me why,
Friends have to die.
Its not fair and its not right,
Oh god, Why some night?
I didn’t think life could end so fast,
She is so young her years won’t last.
It’ll be to late to say goodbye,
Please god, Tell me why?
Maybe life isn’t what it seems,
and not all teens get their dreams.
I know we’re all meant to someday die,
Still god, I have to ask why?
And Where Were You?
I never thought I’d see this day,
I never thought I’d feel this way,
You…a stranger to me now.
I’m left with emptiness…
I wish I knew how it could be,
That we were once so open and free.
You were like my brother.. yet so much more
I wish I would have seen what I see now before.
For, I did not and it’s too late…
My friend, my lover once, is now unknown.
And what hurts the most is I now know..
What I lost.. and I’m alone.
To face a challenge life has sent,
And not a moment with you I’ve spent.
I hope one day I can forgive you, my friend..
I miss you….
Why did you go?
