Aboy and A Girl

(I have to credit this poem to Sian,
my daughter
who has let me post this here)


A boy and a girl,
the best of friends.
From elementary to high school
from beginning to end.


Through all those years
their friendship grew.
They both felt the same,
but neither knew.

Each waking moment
since the day they met.
They both loved each other
sunrise to sunset.

He was all she had
in her terrible life.
He was the one
who kept her from her knife.

She was his angel,
she made him smile.
Though life threw him curves,
she made it all worth while.

Then one day
things went terribly wrong.
The next few weeks
were like a very sad song.
He made her jealous
on purpose he tried
When the girl asked,
"Do you love me?"
On purpose he lied.
He played with jelousy
like it was a game.
Little did he know
things would never be the same.
His plan was working
but he had no clue
How wrong things would go
the damage he would do.
One night she broke down
feeling very alone.
Just her and her blade,
no one else at home.
She dialed his number
he answered "hello"
She told him she loved him
Then hung up the phone
He raced to her house
just a minute to late
Found her lying in blood
her heart had no rate
Beside her was a note
in it her confession
Her love for this boy
her only obession.
As he read the note,
he knelt down and cried
Grabbed her knife
that night, they both died
She was found in his arms,
both of them dead.
Under her note
his handwriting said:

"She loved me so
I never knew
But all this time
I loved her too"
