#39 To You From Me

Do you care about your friend? Then tell them in one way or another.

I'm fifteen years old and live in Sweden.

To You From Me

by Karin Solum

The hardest part of being a friend
is knowing when you need it a little
and when you need it a lot.

So just in case you're in need
of a friendly "hi" today,
I wanted to let you know I'm here still caring,
still thinking about you,
and still being your friend.
