Poem 15

I wrote this for a good friend when she was upset

empty gaze
frowning face
sadly staring off in space
all of this...
just for a guy?
and of course,
i can't lie
Boys...
make your heart stop
bring a smile to your face
make your stomach drop
and your thoughts race
but...
never 
let a guy
control
your
soul
or lock up your smile
because friends..
are forever
and guys..
for a while
It will be alright
it will be fine
and for every battle
we'll be by your side
