I write...so therefor I am a Writer.


The things we said...
were very wrong
I didn't mean to be so red
That's why I sing this song...
"I hate you-
Get away from me
I'd fight you
If it wasn't for the publicity...

I'm yelling to you "I'm sorry"
But you walk away
You ignore me anyway...

I'm sorry!
Don't you get it?
My vision's getting blurry!
It's like I've fallen in a pit

Please don't go!
Please just wait!
I want you to know...
Don't close the gate
Of friendship
I'm sorry
Don't close the Gate of Friendship
You're still walking
Leaving me alone talking
I follow you
You still ignore me
I felt that I will rue
How can this be?!
"Go away"
You say
I say "no
Oh please listen to me oh..."
You continue down the path
Nearing the Gate
I yell "Please don't let me in wrath!"
You look at me with hate...

I'm sorry!
Don't you get it?
My vision's getting blurry!
It's like I've fallen in a pit

Please don't go!
Please just wait!
I want you to know...
Don't close the gate
Of friendship
I'm sorry
Don't close the Gate of Friendship

We reach the borders of the park
Where the roses have thorn and it's dark
I'm crying lots of tears
Because the last time we've been here was years!
When we first became friends
We entered this beautiful place
But it seems there are ends
That we are leaving this wonderful space
I called out to you
You didn't hear me
Then it was like you flew
Oh why didn't I anticipate this to be?!
You put your hand on the Gate
I screamed out
I let go of faith
I never been on this route
You opened it a lot
The tears that came down were still hot
I had one last chance
To break the trance
I'm sorry!
Don't you get it?
My vision's getting blurry!
It's like I've fallen in a pit

Please don't go!
Please just wait!
I want you to know...
Don't close the gate
Of friendship
I'm sorry
Don't close the Gate of Friendship
I'm sorry!!!
Don't close the Gate!!!
Of Friendship...
You closed the gate
When my back was facing you
I heard your footsteps-but wait!
I smiled
You weren't outside when you closed the gate
This could be so mild
I turned around
And faced the hug
All this without making a sound
You then went to fill your coffee mug
You gave me a grin
I whispered "I win"
Then I went back in the garden knowing I survived the tide
And I still have you ... by my side!

A song of what most people feel when they fight with their best friends.
The garden can be anywhere as long as your with your friend. In the beginning you start with thorned roses then gradually as your relationship grows the garden grows bigger and gains more beauty.
