Friendship to nothing

by shadows of saber   Mar 11, 2024


An eye for an eye

A heart for a heart

A life for a life

But for me? Somewhat of a laugh?

My hard work,

My friendship,

My encouragement

My persistence,

My heart

And my time

My money and my mind.

For what I received back when I asked for help at my lowest?

A slap in the face by a friend you thought was your closest.

I was truely nothing for when it was all taken i was tossed aside like garbage.

Im still in shock from this abuse you gave . You snapped and snapped untill you pushed me away. . I questioned what i did wrong . And how to fix this? . . For the truth is . . You hated me and thought I was disgusting.

All i asked was to be friends again. You couldn't even say hi.. let's put on this mask again.

Like it didn't hurt when you pushed me aside.

It didn't hurt like a skewer in the eye.

I acted blind you see hoping for the old you and me.

But for what? For it to be thrown back at me?

Shoved and snapped against the floor .

For your words hurt.

I truely mattered no more.

Nothing, nothing at all.

    you keep writing poems that directly relate to my life yet i know we live 100's of km away from each other, but what happened years ago, and the girl not having any time for me, when its good its good, when its bad you sort it out yourself cause they vanish...
