Having Tea with Me

I have not slept all night. My eyes sting. My back aches. My mind slowed. Here is a freshly written poem.

I'll Be Your Friend

You feel alone
No one accepts you
No one respects you
Every day is a new misery
Don't worry, I'll be your friend

Your parents mistreat you
Your siblings bully you
Your peers torture you
You grow more numb everyday
Don't despair, I'll be your friend

I'll visit you every day
I'll bake you cookies and cakes
We'll play games and watch movies
Every day will be a carnival
I told you, I'll be your friend

I'll hug you when you're sad
You have sanctuary
When you are feeling alone
You have sanctuary
You'll never know a sad day
I promise, I'll be your friend
