I have a friend named Rochelle
who is no longer here
She wasn't where she was suppose to be
so her dad punished her
in a way that hurt everybody
we were walking around our school
when her name was called
a few minutes later
she came walking down the hall
with tears pooring from her eyes
when i asked her what was wrong
her words stabbed through me like a knife.
she and her brother brightened the halls
But now that they're gone
the halls seem black and hopeless
Nothing here to go to
Nothing in this school
no one for me to hang out with at lunch
no one to the park with
no one for me to goof around with
no one to go to when i need to cry
or let out my pain
I sat in her locker
cause now,
that's the closest i can get to her
there's no fun for me today
nothing lively in the word friendship anymore
Darkness is all around me.
