With love from a friend that cares

To Dear Simon,

You muck up in class,
And don't do the work,
You break all the rules,
And act like a jerk.

Your proud of detentions,
You pretend not to care.
Is it a plea for attention?
Do you do it for a dare?

You've had a messed up life
With your Dad leaving before
But can't you try,
Try and be something more?

Believe it or not,
There is more to life,
Than smoking or drinking
and getting into strife.

There are more important things
Than human opinions.
You don't need acceptance
From the cool or their minions

Real friends like me
Are always here for you
To share the good times
And to hold you when you're blue.

I can't do much more,
Than love you and listen.
But I do want to help,
If you care for my opinion.

I want you to be happy,
not broken inside.
I want you to have a life,
as lovely as mine.

My secret is God,
And his love for me.
I'm not forcing this on you
but can't you see,?

I just want to help,
You could be so great
Don't live a life
That you'll forever hate.

With Love, from a friend that cares.
