There once was a girl who felt alone.
Eventhough she had friends and a home.

Two friends with which she loved.
But were never there when she called.

One day she met a guy who she thought was dumb.
But even so he made the sadness change into fun.

Alone that night she cried and no one would come.
Ding! A sharp sound from sprang from her phone.

She picked it up wiping a tear from her eye.
To see a message saying hello from the guy.

Sighing she answered texting him back.
He intrigued her for one and gray is better then black.

A friendship grew of mutual trust.
And he was always there when things got rough.

Her friends broke her down and left.
When all she ever did was try to do her best.

He told her she wasn't trash and should've never been thrown away.

The words helped her to grow and make it threw the day.

Things grew better and her friends matured.
And she took them back happy and undeterred.

But her parents learned about the guy and panicked
Forbidding their own kind of friendship unwarranted.

The guy got sad, and then mad, and stopped helping her.
He had been hurt before and couldn't continue any farther.

She was confused and alone back right to the start.
To her friends she smiled hiding her broken heart.

The girl went on a trip alone.
Filled with woe, trying to find home.

She fought and wept and laughed at herself.
She even once purposely hurt herself.

She held on to the edge of the cliff.
Fighting the urge to let herself slip.

A hand suddenly reached out and caught her right before she fell.
Slowly moving her far far away from her personal hell.

She cryed with joy, she was finally free!
A true smile shown on her face filled with glee!

It was true she sometimes still felt alone.
But this time she also finally found her home.

She soon began a quest to show her friends the way.
"But that's the story for tomorrow" she said, " not today."
