They've been friends since forever ago,
When illness upon him was bestowed.
They gave him medication after medication,
And the little girl would just wait, patient.
But he was only in first grade,
And it made his mind deteriorate,
Fast forward 4 years, but, little did she know,
So she continued along when he started his whack show.
She learned the lingo, played the game,
Said things that could bring her future to shame,
But all because he was manipulating,
And their friendship became intoxicating.
Her mother was worried of their shared messages,
She saw her daughter on a precipice,
And told her family later that night
That she would have to make it right.
Report his words to authorities
And stop his crazy, wild, scheme.
If underplayed, some could lose their lives,
But she won't be the one who stood by.
