How Can I?

How can I be your friend

When you push me away?

How can I be your friend

When you don't hear what i say?

 

How can I make you listen

When you hate your life?

How can I make you listen

When you try to use the knife?

 

How can I heal your pain

When you are full of hate?

How can I heal your pain

When you already chosen your fate?

 

How can I believe your words

When you don't really care?

How can I believe your words

When you are not being fair?

 

How can I feel truly safe

When you have rage in your heart?

How can I feel truly safe

When you were dark from the start?

 

How can I understand

When you act the way you do?

How can I understand

When you never gave me a clue?

 

How can I?

good job, I can see your side of thing, and how you are confused about your friend, but I can so easily relate to your friend, it's not that your dark from the start, but it's that someone caused you to be

still a very good poem!
