[bodytext] => All my friends are just reminders Of how alone I really am. Reminding me to find my hands when they go out on their own. Reminding me of introspection when I’ve realized what they’ve done. Reminding me that they don’t like The things I do or the books I read. Reminding me that they don’t understand The things I do or the music I play. Reminding me that they don’t care about The things I do or the trials I’ve had. Reminding me that they aren’t there- When I am. How do you talk to someone Whose focus is the mirror? Who criticizes all your normals? Who can’t remember left from right and can’t understand simple emotions? Well, you’re my friend, yes I know, But what day was I born? What’s my favorite song to play? My favorite team to watch?- You can stop guessing now. You remind me that a friend is what you call a stranger on the street. It’s that person you walk by While you go into a bar or market or store. A friend is someone who laughs when you fail a test or when your father dies. A friend is someone who complains when you finally attain something better. A friend is someone who doesn’t realize how hypocritical they sound. Thanks to all the friends out there Who made me wish I was stronger. Thanks to all the friends Who made me wish I looked better. Thanks to all the friends Who told me I was soft. Thanks to all the friends Who told me I am wrong. Thanks to all the friends Who told me who I am. Because now I have confidence. Now girls throw themselves at me. Now I haven’t cried in years. Now I have a 4.0 average. Now I know what I want to be. Thank you, for helping me.
