Always

Sometimes i feel like dying
that my life is worth nothing
and i am empty
sometimes i feel dumb
that i don't understand things that i should know
and i will never learn
sometimes i feel like crying
that everything in this world is covered in pain
and i just want to curl up and release my tears
sometimes i fee like a depressant
that whenever i am down i bring others with me
and i make people sad
sometimes i feel like a broken record
that i whine and cry and complain about the same things
and my tune will never change
sometimes i feel alone
that no one cares, no one loves, i don't matter
and i will always be unrequited
sometimes i just don't want to exist...

but i have this friend,
this wonderful, caring friend
she always cares
she always talks
she always listens
she always smiles for me
she always makes me smile in return
she will always love
she will always be there...

she makes me feel alive,
she makes me feel smart.
she makes me feel exciting,
she helps me dry my eyes.
she makes me feel happy,
she helps me stop complaining.
she makes me feel loved,
she tells me i'm not alone.
she makes me want to live...

i have this rose
this beautiful, wonderful rose
sitting upon my desk
always pretty
always lovely
always makes me smile
always there
always reminding me of her

this rose
a symbol of my love,
my friendship that is always there,
that will never leave
and although this flower will fade some day,
our love and friendship never will-
and i will thank you from the bottom of my heart
forever.

i love you, my beautiful, wonderful Rose
