Oh, My Friend Poem by Cookie Matzii

I'm experiencing a bad day,
so I tried staying out of everyone's way,
'cause I wouldn't want to bother anyone else,
at times like this,
I brood all alone,
just by myself.
But then you went on nagging me about what you thought,
I wanted so bad to answer back but I just sat there,
I should've fought.
At that moment I didn't really feel well,
good thing I have a special friend who gave me company
'till we heard the ring of the bell.
Of course I felt a bit pissed,
yes, you heard me it's true.
We were not like this before, I remember.
Those times, I just happen to miss.

We've had countable misunderstandings,
and at first I never really knew why they were happening.
But now we're having another quarrel,
it's quite weird why it's like this, our friendship,
it's going right down the well.
It's been like the 3rd or 4th time since the school
year started,
and I think I know now why this year often times,
we've parted..

Frankly, you've changed, that's what I see.
Or maybe I'm just unaware that who changed,
was actually me.
But, no, I can tell 'cause we've had fun before.
Now it's like we're having arguments,
and it's making me feel sore.
Or maybe I just didn't know who or what you really were,
so I guess I don't have the right to judge you for who you are.
'Cause I see that you still have fun with the friends you have now.
So why am I feeling this rage? This heat? Why? How? ..

I guess it's because of how you act,
which others may enjoy, that's a fact.
But for me, it's weird I don't know why,
I even remember our first parting,
oh, boy did I cry.
But I know that's already in the past,
they've turned into memories now,
and who knows until when they'll last.

And I guess that's how life goes,
unexpected things tend to happen.
We just got to learn to accept 'em,
to possibilities be open.
'Cause everything changes,
that's been repeated for numerous times.
Everything changes,
people have been committing stupid crimes.

So a day passed by,
we're still not friends,
but I know we'll be back together before the day even ends.
And so I saw you right after being dismissed,
you were right there standing, I couldn't have missed.
And I'm not really used to holding any grudge,
so it was I who made the first budge.
We were already bus mates so it was inevitable.
I needed to befriend you again,
because not talking to you for a day, it was miserable.
So we were back to our old selves,
talking and blabbing.
Acting like we never fought,
more stories we even end up sharing.

These hardships I guess, these misunderstandings..
makes our friendship grow stronger,
it even gives me more motivations for my writings.
So I guess from now on I won't expect our friendship
to always be smooth-sailing,
because I know I tend to be moody,
and you sometimes tend to nag me.
But that's all settled,
we're friends again.
I guess we just got to get used to this,
even though it may bring us a short feel of pain.
And I'm fine with that 'cause though we may be apart..
I'll always love you, my friend,
and you'll always have a place in my heart.
