my friends

by antwan fields - Aries

listen!
listen as i tell you about the way we ran together
and the way we hung
we laughed at bad jokes
kept the head nodding at the old folks
sex we always talked about 
my friends

they ran with me 
that stayed my pals
we always kept each other up
called all the time
never had to rhyme

games we played 
prices we paid
to be buddies

the bad boys used to call us gay
cause we were together every day
we wanted to be friends forever
but the day that would come would be never

she came along 
took dave away
mel moved
i did too
so did scott 
to paraguay

marcus left, never saw him again
chris went to college, where he got to win
rich dropped out, tony lost clout
martina got pregnant,jeff began to pout
i went bi
brian started getting high
and we all have new friends

we all loved each other
but we broke up
couldn't stand each other

sometimes i catch my self 
reaching for the phone
then i stop myself
why?
i don't know

if you guys see this, i still love you
true


Reason for writing:

    my grade school friends. the above is what happened to them
i miss them
