Those Junior High Years, by shelbys08 Subscribe to rss feed for shelbys08

The only reason I got up for school
Was to see your beautiful face.
Whoever knew that last day of school
Would be our last embrace.

That year of school seemed to last forever.
It never seemed to end.
Here I go I'll tell it now
Even though my heart won't mend.

I met you in 6th grade.
I thought you were so funny and sweet.
I wanted you as my best friend
But there was no open seat.

I didn't really talk to you
Until half the school year was already ran.
That's when I started my period
And everything began.

I started to talk to you more
Because I wanted you to see
That I wanted to be your friend
Just as everyone else wanted to be.

You would not talk to me as much
as I tried to talk to you.
So I started to get mad and cry
Just so I could speak to you, too.

It always seemed to work.
You always felt so bad.
You'd talk to me even more
But I still felt so sad.

Then I started to get mixed feelings.
I wanted you more then what we were.
I didn't want you this way!
That is just how the tables turned.

Soon it was 8th grade year.
I had you in almost every class.
I wanted you to be my partner
For every single project we had.

I started to tell you the things
That I have felt for so long.
You would always blow me off
Saying my feelings were wrong.

One night at a football game
You asked me what I felt.
I told you what I thought
But with this you've never delt.

Days went by since I felt like this.
I started to lean on you more and more.
I didn't want you to ever leave me
Because I felt I would run into a door.

I needed you there with me.
You were my only strength to survive
But I knew I shouldn't have treated you that way!
It was ruining yours and my life.

All to soon later, I started to cut myself
Just to prove my love to you.
It always worked every day
Because you would start to feel sorry for me and cry, too.

Then you told me that you hurt
Because I lied so much.
I tried to stop the lies
But when I did, our friendship would die.

Once you went to the Guidance Counsler
To let her know what has happened.
You didn't tell her at first about my love for you
But soon she had to know the truth.

You had to drag me to the Counsler 
That first day that I was there.
You stayed there with me until she made you go
And when you left my heart did tear.

The counsler wanted to see me more and more.
When you wouldn't talk to me I went to her room
To talk about all that has happened
And how I was in such doom.

You didn't know it at all
But you knew me so well.
When you would talk on the internet to me
You knew everything I was feeling and wanted to tell.

You told me once that I knew you like that, too.
I could say things to you about how you felt
And got them right you said.
That left on my heart a big welt.

That made me know that we were ment to me
Maybe not in the way I wanted it to be
But maybe just as friends.
So I bugged you even more and more for you to see.

I bugged you so much than I should have.
I put so much pressure on you.
I shouldn't have leaned on you so much
But my heart was breaking in two.

Soon I started to see a counsler outside of school
And soon you started to, also.
They let you see things differently
And that made me feel so low.

Because now you know that I was the bad friend
When you used to think I was a good one
For loving you so much and wanting to care for you.
Now all you wanted to do was run.

Now as the last day of school aproached
My father because I was harrasing you that year
I had to go to a new school
To be far away from you but I wanted to be near.

I couldn't stand to be away from you
Even for two days.
So how could I spend a whole next year
With out you and your ways?

On the last day of school we had to say our good byes.
I didn't want you to leave me
But now I had to leave you.
I gave you so long ago of my heart the key.

This was going to be hard I knew.
I couldn't even be away from you the weekend.
Now the whole next year I'd miss you
And my heart would never mend.

I hugged you so many times.
I wanted to kiss you again
Like we did that one day
But that would just bring more pain.

So I hugged you again as I got on my bus.
We could talk on the internet you said
But not seeing you would still hurt.
It would feel as though my heart was dead.

So there it happened 
The whole story of those Junior High years.
My heart is still aching so bad
And I still cry those very tears.

I'm trying to move on.
I still talk to you sometimes.
You still talk to me even though you pretend
It's not you but i know you to well to break the vine.

You will always be in my heart 
Even when I'm married and old.
You were my first love
And my heart is engraved with your name in bold.
