In Front Of You

Finding Friendship.. Ages 6-12

She Lived Next Door, Played In My Yard -
Distance Was Hard But I Said "Hi" From Afar -
Her Golden Locks Gleamed Off The Sun's Glare -
Caught In Her Stare Before I Was Prepared -
We Spent The Day.. Having Childish Fun -
A Child To Sum, But Her Smile Had Won -
She Looked Into My Eyes..Inside Of Them -
Her Heart Inside.. "Will You Be My Friend?" -

Binding Thoughts.. Ages 15-19

She Could Reach My Dreams To Say The Least -
Teach Beliefs To Cease.. Yet Could Never Compete -
I Was Her Confessional, A Problem Resolution -
Never Minded To Do It, Friendship Proven -
I Would Watch Her Grow Through My Bedroom View -
Together As Two, Confused In Their Youth -
Guys Offered Her Dates Frequently -
Seemingly, She Liked A Guy, Which Was The Least For Me -
He Was Older, A Senior, Money And Car -
"Do What You Wish" Just Stand For Who You Are -
Always Asked Me My Thoughts About Her Decisions -
Wasn't Popular, But At Least Felt The Right In Livin -
We Grew Distant, For Other Plans She Had -
Thought Back.. As It Was Fun While I Had The Chance -

Distant Yet Never Forgotten.. Ages 20-???

She Moved Not To Long After She Dropped Out -
With Doubt, Got Married To The Same Guy She Talked About -
I Was Happy But I Wasn't, Angered N' Resented -
Tormented, By A Life Rejected, Hate Words Implemented -
She Never Called, Never Asked For My Opinions -
Stopped Askin Me My Thoughts On Her Decisions -
So Distant, I Think To This Day She Forgot Who I Was -
Who She Loved, Where The Relationship Went In Us -
I Mention Because, She Shown To Me Once More -
Golden Locks, Crusted N' Poor In The Entrance Of My Door -
She Couldn't Stay Long.. Or So She Would Plead -
"Breathe, What Do You Need?" Calmed By My Heart's Beat -
"He's Abusive, I'm Pregnant, What Is Their For Me To Do?" -
Be You, Dont Be Screw'd By A Man Tryin To Use Me Against You -
Dont Go Back, Go Somewhere Where You Know Its Safe -
A Place Based On The Sparkle Of The Tear Of Your Face -

She Left, Hugged Me.. And Cried -
Why Did I Not Feel She Was Going To Hide? -

I Found Her Picture.. She Was Murdered That Night -
Died, For Trying To Tell That Man What She Thought Was Right -
So Much Pain.. Why Couldn't She See All Of My Love For Her? -
Instead Of Looking, She Should Have Had What Was Right In Front Of Her -
