Mac And Katie

by I.Dont.Own.Emotion.I.RENT.   Jun 20, 2005


You two were the best of friends
My best friends to be exact
You said you would be friends forever
Remember when you signed the pact?

From 5th grade up until 7th
You two were always together
No one could pull you apart
You’d always say “friends forever!”

You two were the people I relied on
To help me through all the pain
Katie and I videotaped
While Mac and I danced in the rain

Then in 7th grade
You started drifting apart
You wouldn't talk to one another
And the terribly broke my heart

I was the one you came to
To tell me what the other had done
“Katie would always ignore me”
“Mac would go with Ceci to have fun."

Everything was falling apart
These weren’t the two friends I knew
I didn’t know how to help
If only friendships could be fixed with glue

I tell you both to talk it about
But no one wants to talk first
Well I’ll tell you right now I have so much to say
I feel like I’m going to burst

What happened to you?!
This is just not right
You guys always agreed
And would never fight

But all of a sudden you turned on each other
Not wanted to see the others face
Maybe you wanted to give the other some room
But I’m sorry this is way too much space

I know you to can work it out
Will you please just give it a try
You don’t understand what this is doing to me
Every night I can't help but cry

Remember all the good times you had?
So many I can’t even think
As you’re reading this take a second
Close your eyes and don’t even blink

Please remember all the inside jokes
And all the fun things you did
You guys can have so many more
And share them all with your kids

Why can’t you work this out?
Don’t you want to be friends again?
How about you write a letter to each other
Go grab some paper and a pen!

Now write down your feelings about this whole fight
And tell the other what you want them to know
Don’t worry about what the other will think
Just write what you feel and go!

Just read what the other has to say
Maybe you feel the same
Hopefully everything will be out in the open
And there will be no one left to blame

I’m not forcing you to be friends
At least keep the memories in your heart
And I’ll be friends with both of you forever
Even if you two are apart.

    Hey Lex-

    Its a good poem, but it did nothing. Remember we promised eachother that we would never be afraid to talk to eachother. Katie wont talk to me. I dont want to have a friend that doesnt talk to me when she has a problem. If I ask her whats wrong, do you seriously think shes going to tell me? Shes going to be like ohh nothing. I know how you feel and Im very sorry. You can make it through this, I am. Love you always,
