Not until now

Soaring through my memories

The days before 5th grade

Why did it have to be you?

The one that had to leave

its not your fault

you had a screwed up family

and in the end

you're the one paying for it

You were an awesome friend i had

one of the funniest

but i forgot about you until now

I'm sorry

and now thinking about the past

I didn't realize how much I missed you

Until I thought about it

just now

I enjoyed this as well. This is sad, but such a wonderful tribute to your friend. I find it really cool that you think about her, I'm sure she thinks about you too. Maybe too can find each other again on Facebook or something. A girl who I'd known in 1st grade, we hadn't talked since then and in 6th grade she found and reminded me of who she was. Its been 5 years and we are now closer than ever. I hope you and your friend can find each other again. This was a wonderful poem. Excellent job.

This poem was outstanding in achievement. You got what you strived for. I took from it a feeling of warmth that enveloped me because it was a road to the stairway leading to finding comforts.

I enjoyed this. It's sad but a great tribute to your friend. I know how it feels to leave your friends because I moved around a lot when I was younger, and one of my best friends moved in 6th grade. But most stories have a happy ending and my friend came back my freshman year of high school. Even if your friend doesn't come back, that doesn't mean you'll never see her again. It also doesn't mean that she's forgot about you either. Even though you don't think about her all the time, it doesn't mean you've forgotten her. She'll always be in your heart, whether you know she's there or not. That's where she'll always stay and that's where you'll always be to her.
