I am Sorry

“You don’t get many friends like this
She is one, if you lose, you will forever miss”

Oh, my friend, she was ever so right
Never before have you and I had a fight

And the fight is all because of me
Because selfish and ignorant I had to be

I thought we would be friends until the end
But I do not deserve you as a friend

You are a better person then me
A better friend then I will ever be

You have always been here
Here for me, to make me have not one fear

You forgive me for every bad thing I do
And oh so much, we have been through

But I have not taking away your fears
And I probably have made you shed many tears

I know sorry does not make things better
So to you, I write this letter

Please, this letter, will you read?
Because you are the one person that I need

“Dear anonymous,

I feel as I can say anything to you
And it would break my heart to know that we are through

You are my best friend
To me, you always have a helping hand to lend

I know that I have hurt you and I can’t take it back
Because being able to rewind time is something that I lack

But I am so unbelievably sorry and this is no lie
I broke down inside when I saw you cry

You have no idea the hatred I felt
The hatred I felt, against myself

I can not believe that I did this to you
And I would understand if our friendship is through

But please I ask you to consider this
Because with out you my life will be stripped of all its bliss

One last chance is what I ask from you
Because I love you so much, and I wish you only knew

I swear I will not let you down
Because the old Shannon, I have now found

I had to lose what mattered the most to relieve what I had
I am so sorry, and I feel so bad!

If not, I understand
Understand that I no longer have that helping hand

So the next time that I begin to fall
And for help, I no longer have you to call

Then I will try to think back on you and me
And how we used to be

Think back to the first time we met
And the one time, you and I watched the sun set

The time we would run around in the rain
And when we told each other of our pain

All the nights I stayed up and told my secrets to you
And the real me, only you knew

All the times when you stood by my side
When all I wanted to do was go and hide

You stood by my side when no one else would
And forgave me when no one else could

Maybe when I think of all of this, some of that happiness will come back
But still then, a true friend, like you, I will lack

I will never find another friend like you
And how sorry I am, I only wish you knew

But if you ever need a shoulder to cry on
I am here with a shoulder ready to be cried upon

If you ever need a helping hand, I am here
I am always here to take away your fears…
