Friends

By Tamara, 11, Burton, Staffs, UK

Friends stick with you,
No matter what they say,
Friends stick with you,
'Til the end of the day.

Friends stick with you,
Even when you fall out,
Friends stick with you,
No matter what you fell out about.

Friends stick with you,
Friends stick by you,
Friends stick with you,
Friends stick by you.

What is A Friend?

By Jaliyah, 10, Memphis, TN, USA

What is a friend? Is a friend someone who calls you everyday? To tell you the latest news and how they made a way? Or do they treat you with respect and never settle for less. Hug you at night tell you that you don't need to worry or fright. Do they tease you and wheez and tell you that they need you.
Can't they just be one thing your only friend until the end. The blood in your body the muscle in your bone. There is only one thing that can keep a friendship strong. And it's love.

Megan, this is for you.

When you were here, you lit up the world.
You lit up my life.
You lit up my face
with so many
smiles.


I know you are
not gone

but ...
you are
because I can

you

Hayley

By Rebecca, 12, Hornchurch, UK

Having fun together in
Activity week was when we were such good friends and
You were always there for me
Like at the activity week BBQ you saved us all from Abba
Eating burgers and then playing SPLAT!
You were my best friend

Of course we were best friends

Don't forget me I won't forget you
Oh Hayley
Now why did it have to end too soon
No one knows why
Of all my time at
Hacton those last six weeks with you were great
Understand my cry for help, oh how I miss you
Every day I think and miss, I think and miss you

Why I have friends

By Eldine, 9, FL, USA

"You all know why it is important to have friends but do you know why it's important to me". Friends are important to me because they are special,funny,and you won't be lonely.
"All my friends are so special and you're one of them".
Initially, my friends are so special because they like family.
I have some good friends like my teacher Mrs B. She is everyone's friend in my classroom. So is Ms. W - she is a good teacher. I have other friends that are special to me. Like another one is Brianna she is such a good friend. Brittany is the best. I have some eternal friends that are the best. I have told you why my friends are special.
"Friends are so funny". Additionally, it is important to have friends because of their humor. I love my friends humor they crack me up like santa's "HO HO HO". They're the best. Friends are just important to me. Guess why what my favorite holiday is valentines day because cupid just shoot me.
Furthermore, friends are important because you won't be lonely. My friends always cheer me up just like that because they're the best. Like teachers or friends. I can't wait to go to school tomorrow because of new game called elmo. When I first heard a game called elmo I didn't want to play in till my heroic friend Robert cheered me up. I have told you the second reason why it is important to have friends.
"Aloha". To wrap it up I have explained why my friends are important to me because they are special, funny, and can cheer you up like that. I'd keep on writing but I have to go talk to my friends.

Is This My friend?

By Lauren, 13, Wakefield, UK

My best friend?
I don't think so.

I know this girl, three years ago,
she came up to me and demanded that I would be her new best friend. At first, i thought this was nice,
now, three years later, we're still best friends, sort of...
I'm still not sure if she is my best friend.

Would a friend steal your things?
Would a friend use you?
Would a friend fall out with you over the smallest things?
Would a friend get angry because you're too busy to hang out with them?
Would a friend stab you in the back?
Would a friend pull your hair and fight with you, constantly?
Would a friend talk about other people to you behind thier back?

Your friend wouldn't do any of those things. Mine would.

Bestest friend ever

By Niki, 11, Boca Raton, USA

I have a friend her name is Brittany. Now I've only know Brittany for 2 years and it's like we have become sisters. When she first visited our school she sat next to me and I am a shy person but she was so nice to everyone and nice to me so I was saying to myself that I want to be friends with her. Now we are in 6th grade and we are still best buds. Even though we get in fights we still apologize because that the right thing to do and I wanted to be friends with her because Brittany is the MOST BESTEST FRIEND EVER because if you ask her to do something she will do it and if you need help she helps you and she gives the best advice about everything. If you knew Brittany you would be soo happy because she is the best friend ever and she keeps the secrets you tell her to herself! (July 2007)

Popular Friend

By Caitlin, 12, OH , USA

Just because you think
You're popular
Doesn't mean you have to be
So mean
So cruel
You may think you're on top of the World
But to tell the truth
Your just one kid living in it

I'm tired of you
Thinking of me as your last resort
It's always my fault
They don't except you
At least according to you
I'm sick of it
And I'm not gonna take it any more

So you better start
Searching for a new friend
Cause I'm not gonna take it any more
I'm walking straight out that door
You won't miss me
When I'm gone
You'll probably just
Move right along.

My Jessica

By Samantha, 15, Bagdad, Tasmania, Australia

I have a best friend and her name is Jess and I love her more than a sister. We have had a few big fights since we became friends but although they have took time away from us they have also made us stronger. We know what each other is thinking and can finish each others sentences, when she says she is fine i know if she's lying. We talk to one another about anything and everything and silence is not awkward. We know each we are the best of friends and I hope we stay friends forever because without her I would be nothing... luv u jess xx (June 2007)

My friend Yasemin; a goodbye letter

By Becky, 11, London, UK

Dear Yas,
I'm going to find it hard to say goodbye when we go to separate schools. I will still see you at Guides once a week, but it won't be the same as seeing you practically every day. So I'm going to write down all our memories and how we met. So here it is.
One day in nursery you came up to me. You said your name was Yasemin and asked me what mine was. I said my name was Becky. Then you asked me whether you wanted to become friends. I said yes. That was nearly eight years ago. I remember in nursery when we played with the cars. I had the pink and you had the black.
In reception we decorated eggs and raced them down the hill. You wanted to give yours to your mum.
In year 1 we went to see Chitty Chitty Bang Bang at London's West end and we had a meal out. But also in Year 1 something happened that changed it all. Emily took you away from me. This went on throughout year 2.
In year 3 we got a bit friendlier, but it was never the same. Never will be.
Year 5 and you met Tori. Now you two are best friends. You and me are still good friends.
Year 6 and in September we will be separated. We'll only see each other once a week at Guides.
from Becky
xxxxxx
PS I'll miss you

In your eyes

By Samantha, 15, Richmond, Nelson, New Zealand

When I looked into your eyes I saw friendship. I saw your heart and through to your soul. Sometimes I saw pain, sometimes I saw joy, but most of all I saw love. Deep black pupils surrounded by hazel, with a glaze only I could see. But now that glaze has gone and all I see is a sea of hazel green protecting a deep, dark, black hole. Inside that hole I see you, being you. Moving about but also very serious. When your eyes filled with salty water and reached to spill, you shut them, letting the tears fall. They slid down your cheeks and fall off your jaw. You were soon calm and wiped them away. When I looked at you, I felt you, how you can be, and the other side of you. Reaching for that hope and survival, you hold on, try, but don't succeed. Everyone could tell your heart sank and you felt as though your soul drifted away. Floating up to the heavens, melting with peace and happiness. But soon you lost your wings and found yourself looking back at me. Me looking at you, as we feel our pupils meet and touch for warmth. Your deep dark holes making new secrets everyday, forming them, and then trying to let go. How can you live with that pain? But you must always know I'm here for you. I am your mate, I am your friend. (May 2007)

Letter to Brit

By Jessica, 16, Amery, WI, USA

This was a letter that I wrote for school. It is about my best friend that died.



Dear Brit,

I can't believe that you are gone! I miss you like crazy. When you called me that night, November 24th, 2006, and wanted me to hang out with you and some of your friends, I didn't know that it would be the last time I talked to you again. I thought it was just another night with the girls. I agreed to talk to you the next day at noon. I was going to call you when I was done with chores. Well, I did, but you didn't answer. Your mom did. I asked her if you were there and all she did was say that you were in an accident. I went silent. I couldn't breathe. I couldn't believe it. At first I thought it was just a joke, then when she started to cry and told me to come over, I knew it was real. I didn't know if you were alive, or dead, or what. I was so scared!
Your mom and I went to Regions and they wouldn't let me see you because I wasn't family. Your mom was mad and told the doctors that I was not only your best friend, but I was almost like a sister to you. Even if you could come over for a half hour, you did. We were the best of friends. The doctors told us what was wrong with you. They said you arrived at the hospital and were taken directly to surgery. You had many internal injuries. Your spleen was torn and removed, and you liver was torn almost in half. You bled over seven liters out of you liver into your abdomen. They left your stomach open for more surgeries and so your insides could swell and heal without putting pressure on your lungs. Your body temperature was 78 degrees and not climbing at all. The doctors put you on life support. You broke 75% of the bones in your body. They gave you a 10% chance of surviving for 48 hours. When they told me this I just started to cry uncontrollably. I thought that if you tried really hard, you could've made it. You were such a strong girl! If I could've taken all of your pain away, I would have. You suffered so much. I visited you like every day I could. You became all I could think about.
Hours turned into days, and the days into weeks. Then, on December 9th, 2007, you passed away. I told myself it was for the best, but I was still mad. I didn't understand why you had to die. I still don't. I went to your visitation and you looked beautiful. You always looked beautiful. I'm sorry. I regret it now, and I knew I would, but I couldn't go to your funeral. No matter how much I wanted to, I couldn't. When you first died, I didn't talk much to anyone. I didn't want to make a new best friend. I wanted my old one back. I wanted you. But, I started letting people in again. I started talking to one of my friends. Even though he thinks he can't help people when they're sad, he did. He helped so much. I don't know what I would've done without him.
I went to your grave the other day. I sat there by your headstone and I just talked to you. There was so much I needed to tell you. I started to cry. Your mom came when I was there. She cried with me. We went to your house. Your room is exactly how you left it that night ... messy. Your mom gave me some of your clothes. I am wearing one of your sweatshirts while I'm writing this. Sorry, the sleeves are covered with tears. If you didn't know, I've been crying my eyes out just trying to write this. I miss you. Please come back!! Even though we've had so many unforgettable memories, I wish we could have more. I've only known your for six years, but we've become so close. Closer then anyone could ever be.
There is just so much I could say to you, but I don't know how to word it. If I could just spend one day with you. If I could just hear your voice. If I could look into your eyes and see you looking back at me. I miss you more then words could even begin to describe. Your mom misses you terribly! She has a picture of you on the kitchen table where you used to sit. She loved you so much. I know you're happy where you are up there, and that you're watching over me and everyone else. I just wish that you were here.
Your mom gave me your necklace at your visitation. She said that now I'll have a piece of you with me all the time. I gave you my necklace so you would always have a piece of me too. I have never taken that necklace off. On the day of our first track meet, my coach made me. It was hard because, for once in my life, I felt like you weren't with me. I knew you were though. You're always with me. I miss you so much. The other night we had our very first girls night without you. It wasn't very fun. We all just sat there talking about all of the crazy things we would do with you while you were still alive.
I'm still not sure that I'm the same person that I was when you were alive. Probably not. It's been a long hard road without you here by my side to help me get through this stuff, but I can make it. I've been making it for four months, but it's just the rest of my life I'm worried about. I wish you were here.
This last weekend I went shopping for a prom dress. I remember last year when you went to prom. I came with you to get a dress. You tried on all of the ugly ones for like an hour, then you decided to start actually looking for a nice one. You looked beautiful. I miss your laugh. I miss your smile. I miss your eyes. Most of all, I miss how you were always there for me when I needed you. It didn't matter if you were busy or if it was 1:30 in the morning, you were always there for me. I miss that.
I remember when we spend our last night together. We watched the movie 'A Walk to Remember'. We each made a list of the goals we wanted to complete in our lifetime. We kept one and gave one to each other. Well, when you died, my whole list of life goals changed. I added all of your goals into mine. I'm going to try to complete them before I die. I've already got a couple of yours started, like the 'build an ultimate garden' one. I'm going to attempt to do that this summer. It may not be as good as yours would've been, but I'm going to try.
Another one of your goals was to 'make a super sweet poem'. I tried but I don't know if it's 'super sweet'. I'll write it in here.

You were so full of life,
Always smiling and carefree,
Life loved you being a part of it,
And I loved you being a part of me.
You could make anyone laugh,
If they were having a bad day,
No matter how sad I was,
You could take the hurt away.
Nothing could ever stop you,
Or even make you fall,
You were ready to take on the world,
Ready to do it all.
But God decided he needed you,
So from this world you left,
But you took a piece of all of us,
Our hearts are what you kept.
Your seat is now empty,
And it's hard not to see your face,
But please always know this,
No one will EVER take your place.
You left without a warning,
Not even saying good-bye,
And I can't seem to stop,
Asking the question why?
Nothing will ever be the same,
Going on without your laughter,
But I know you're in Heaven,
Watching over us and looking after.
I didn't see this coming,
It hit me by surprise,
And when you left this world,
A small part of me died.
Your smile could brighten anyone's day,
No matter what they were going through,
And I know everyday for the rest of my life,
I'll be missing you.

It's pretty bad, but I tried. I miss you so much!!! I just want you to know that nobody will EVER be as good as a best friend as you were. I want you to look down on me and your family. They miss you too.
From,
Jessica
(April 2007)
