human nature ruined her life:to my best friend
the impact was too much and the devil wrapped himself around her neck.
just like that, in a split second, nothing will be the same.
life is hard now, its hard to pretend everything is okay because its not.
she didn't even apologize-the girl that hit her-she ruined my best friends life and not so much as a meager "sorry" dripped from her lips.
and for that i'll never forgive her.
she never said sorry and my best friend has to deal with the repercussions.
she's had to say goodbye to so many things and they left too fast for her to even kiss them before they went.
she never said sorry.
im crying as I write this and I cry every night because I think that for some twisted reason I have some sort of right to hurt because im watching you hurt.
but I don't.
I don't know what its like to be you.
I don't understand the feeling you get when you pray to your god; I've been praying to him too, begging him to let the pain pass from you, but we don't have the best relationship right now so maybe I'm hurting your cause more than I'm helping.
that's how I feel most days, that I hurt more than I help
and I haven't said sorry.
I've been trying to word this right.
but I've never been good at saying the right thing at the right time, you know that.
I just want you to know that I am here and that im not going anywhere.
I am here and so is Hope.
Hope doesn't leave as long as you hold on.
Hope will stay by your side until you're old and wrinkled if you never let your grasp weaken.
But in moments when you falter, Uncertainty and Disappointment and Anger and Resentment will leak in through the spaces between your fingers and scare Hope; she's never been the biggest kid on the playground but those other feelings are and Hope doesn't want any trouble.
I guess my point is that when you falter I'm going to be there, doing anything that I can to fix the holes so those feelings can't seep in.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
please, darling, hold on to the Hope.
I know it must be so so hard to believe in Hope,
I know that im selfish and you deserve better,
and I know that I can't fix anything,
but please,
let me help.
You're a freaking amazing friend.
