How Far Will You Go? Poem by mona martinez

you want a friend to get better and recover,
but should you still support her,
if you know that she just running from her problems?
will you hold her tight and tell her,
that you love her like a sister,
' please don't go'
will you share all of the good times,
even if they were bad?
will you tell her the reason you need her around,
or hide how you feeling,
and say you're alright?
even thought deep under you want to cry,
if you knew what to do,
to keep her by your side,
will you do it even if it means,
she will find out the truth?
how far will you go to keep a friend you care close?
will you forget what she want,
just cuz it makes you happ?
or at the end,
will you give in and support her plan,
cuz you know what it feels like,
to not be supportive by people you love?
