A Song For Rachel Poem by Kat 'Happy Girl' Happy

A Song For Rachel

Rating: 5.0


I watch you, sat next to me smiling,
Telling me things, sometimes, just sometimes,
I see that smile change,
Morph, into a grimace, for a second, pain flickers across your face,
And I want to make it go away

Why? Because I know, from all these years
You’re the only one who does this for me
It’s like you’re my antidote, from the pain of reality
I hope I am the same for you
You deserve it.

Sometimes I remember back to my first day at school,
And I think thank God the teacher picked you to look out for me,
I think of the times when you were there for me
And I am grateful
More grateful than words could ever say

I know things are tough for you right now
So I want to pay you back,
I want to show you how you’ll always be my friend
And how special you truly are.
I want to fix it all for you and be here for you

I look back at you and your smile, being jolted around by the bus,
I say something stupid so you grin some more and I watch your pain fade slowly away,
We’ve had better days you and I,
But we’re strong, we’re a team, we’ll pull through
Be selfish Rachel, this ones completely for you.




Obviously dedicated to the one and the only best friend and fellow poem hunter Rachel frikin' Anderson!

'I want to pay you back': it's good to read it about friendship. To think well, it's very simple. Happiness could be just this, the author could be called 'Happy Girl' in the true sense.
