My Motivation
January 26, 2010
I spend everyday
picking up the pieces
of fallen friends
and gluing them back together.
Eventually the glue will melt
and once more they will crumble,
but I will pick them up again.
If only to see them smile.

well, the fact you wrote this poem shows that you care somewhat, and that's better than nothing :)

No one's perfect, and no one comes close, but the difference is some PRETEND they're perfect, and some THINK they're perfect. The really good friends are those who KNOW they're not perfect, and tell their friends show, but they try to be the best they can be.

Well, whether we're a good friend or not is in the eyes of our friends. Of course, we could be a lying little b-word and they wouldn't know, but they still think we're the greatest, until they find out. I'm sure that's not the case in this scenario, but it's sweet that you would write it for them.
Btw, I wrote an article titled "Trying to fly but my wings are too short" about my friends, just in case you're interested in reading it...

Well, yeah, it almost made me cry because it's so true...and I think it's sweet that you would write something like that. Of course, I'm an emotional person, and just about anything makes me cry...especially if it's written!
