A Letter to a Friend
Dear friend,
You haven’t been speaking to me in a while
It has gotten kind of hard without you
You always made me smile
Remember that time you told me
To cut off all my hair
When I did it
You laughed so hard
You told me that I was crazy
And I said, “Only because of you.”
Or when you told me to set my clothes on fire
I did it all because of you
And you always made me smile
My parents kept telling me to stop
But you said no
And so I listened to you
And told you I hated everything they made me do
And you laughed so hard
Ever since they took me to the doctor
It has been bleak and empty
They made me swallow a pill
And suddenly it hit me
You weren’t talking anymore
Not even to say hello
Then I was lonely more than ever before
You aren’t in my head anymore
So I’m writing this letter
Maybe if I stop taking these pills
You and I will be together
