Childhood Friends by Mindy Carpenter
As childhood friends, we grew up together,
Swearing to be friends forever and ever.
Sometimes we would argue and fight,
Other times we would laugh and stay up all night.

We went from playing with games and toys,
To talking and dreaming about different boys.
My thoughts and feelings, to you I would confide,
Never having anything to hide.

Friends we do remain,
Things changing, and things staying the same.
To each other we still listen and share,
About each other, we will always care.

Dedicated to my cousin, and close friend, Mandy, who is like a sister to me. We are neighbors, and always have been. Which may explain our closeness.

bubble This poem was beautiful it touched me deep down and reminded me of a friend i had as a child. He no longer has the power to make me laugh or argue with me because he no longer lives. He was killed in a car crash as a little kid only 5 at the time. If he were still alive he would be touched the same way i was. If i had the e-mail address to heven i would send this beautiful poem to my dear friend Damen. - Jessica
