I cared

Did you realise when I walked in the class
You were the reason I was able to last?
I was feeling so down, I was full of fright
I'd nearly given up the previous night

I'd never seen you before, you were a new face
And I admit I spent the lesson staring into space
but you didn't mind, you didn't yell, you seemed to understand
Out of a dark hole you were my helping hand

I saw you again throughout my course
but i didnt say much, I was a dark horse
I didnt get the chance to tell you all you'd done
I never thanked you for making class fun

then it was time to leave, I had to say goodbye
I never let you see the tears that I did cry
I hate that little word, its so damn hard to say
it always seems to cloud an otherwise perfect day

I wish I'd found the words to tell you that I cared
but I was just so very scared
So it's goodbye my friend, aurevoir, farewell
you choose the word for they all depict my living hell
