well i got the followin poem (again) in an email (again) n i must've read the "cases" before this poem before but they realli dont mean shit cuz so u have 3 or 4 examples that support w/e the hell ur sayin but wat bout all the ppl who read this n sent it on n nothin happened? or the ones who deleted it n lived happy lives? well thats y u shouldnt waste time forwardin this just for the sake of "luck" or "love" but i think it's bittersweet n everybody who has a friend should read it n nv let their friends go. especially since we're all gonna b applyin to college next yr n i swear, graduation is gonna b one of the saddest dys of my life. n i was actually typin this in an email but then i decided to put it on this xanga since ive gotten this email like 50 times before n i want ppl to read this but also break this vicious cycle of sendin somethin to the same ppl over n over.
so read this, n if ur my friend now i realli hope we nv stop talkin...
Around the corner I have a friend,
In this great city that has no end,
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on,
And before I know it, a year is gone.
And I never see my old friends face,
For life is a swift and terrible race,
He knows I like him just as well,
As in the days when I rang his bell.
And he rang mine but we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men.
Tired of playing a foolish game,
Tired of trying to make a name.
"Tomorrow" I say! "I will call on Jim
Just to show that I'm thinking of him."
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes,
And distance between us grows and grows.
Around the corner, yet miles away,
"Here's a telegram sir," "Jim died today."
And that's what we get and deserve in the end.
Around the corner, a vanished friend.
Remember to always say what you mean.
If you love someone, tell them.
Don't be afraid to express yourself.
Reach out and tell someone what they mean to you.
Because when you decide that it is the right time it might
be too late.
Seize the day. Never have regrets.
And most importantly, stay close to your friends
and family, for they have helped
make you the person that you are today.
