Chance to be a friend.....even though your hand is out of reach

Like a child I felt I could not reach you.
Like you were the cookie jar I wanted so bad, but stayed out of reach.
Like the door knob that locked me in my room
Though I begged to open it, I couldn't reach.1

You were always out of reach
So distant
What are you hiding?
Maybe I do not understand
Maybe I'm 40 years younger....
But I love you, can't you understand that?2

I want to be there for you when your sick
I missed half your life
But there is so much more.
I missed the troubled times you had.
And believe me i have no idea what it is like
What it must have been like to have breast cancer...to wake up from a coma 2 weeks later not knowing what you missed.3

But you think I'm too young
To listen
I am the one that everyone turns to
I am the one at my age who has been through enough
To help all the kids at my school.
Maybe they judge me... and I really don't care
Maybe I make friends with older people not my age.4

Someone told me that was because My parents are older...
But can't you accept me as a I am5

I throw myself before you... pleading for your love
In the last resort do I mean this to sound the wrong way.
I only respect you as a very strong woman
One who can teach math, and continue with her life.6

I gave that make a difference speech
For a reason
Mrs.Martinez you make the biggest difference in my life!
You listen to me... I just wish I could be more then a student in your eyes!!!!!
Please
Give
Me
That
Chance
To
Have
You
As
A
Friend....7
