they say "the friends you make in high school
won't matter the rest of your life"
what they don't know, it that they will
they will matter because they know all of your secrets
they know everything that has happened to you in the last four years
they know the people you dated
the things you've gone through
why you got grounded
hell, even the guy you sent pictures to over text
that you ended up
deleting
because you knew your parents would never approve
so when they say "the friends you make in high school
won't matter the rest of your life"
is a lie
they shape who you become
they help influence you because more often than not
you have that one toxic friends
who always talks **** about people behind their back
but you'll never know if they were talking behind yours
the kind of friend that pressures you into smoking
or drinking
because they say things like "you're parents will never know
they're not here are they?"
or the type of friend who pulls you out of bed even when you're
not feeling up to going out because they're just
trying to get you to feel better
yes, they may have been a part of your life
but those nights you spent making bad decisions,
are nights you could have been calling a friend
or staying up all hours of the night laughing your head off
for some stupid reason
yes, they have been stolen away from you
but your slate is wiped clean
once you let those people go and get them out of your life
toxic friends can always be replaced with new and exciting ones
chose wisely
