Bus Buddies

Location

Oh how I'll never forget when...

I was just in the 1st grade then.

 

The bus driver had assigned me a seat

That is when we would finally meet.

 

You use to tease me everyday

Yet we were still friends, in a strange way.

 

Shocked and surprised I was.

The day you gave me chocolates on the bus.

 

February 14, was the day then

Oh how I'll never forget when...

 

Switched schools you later did

Life wasn't the best for you as a kid.

 

You changed when you came back

Happiness is what you lacked.

 

I was in 7th grade when

You were not my bus buddy again.

 

Friends I still considered us

But one day it all changed on the bus.

 

One day I got on,

You seemed a little withdrawn.

 

Little did I know?

That was the last day, you would show.

 

I got on the next day

Dead silence as we prayed.

 

Your life was too much for you to handle

It soon blew out, like a short wick candle.

 

I know were not that close then

Oh how I'll never forget when...

 

My bus buddy is forever lost

At a very tremendous cost.
