The Great Friend

by Heather M Craig   Dec 27, 2004


~dedicated to Amanda McCracken~ aka on this site Amanda-the bad chick-

You call yourself a great friend,
well my question to you is why ...
Do we argue more than we get along,
why do you always make me cry...
Why do you give me more pain
than I even had to begin with,
why time after time, it’s the same old thing,
but importantly, why do I put up with your shit.
I feel so empty when I talk to you
yet so full of this rage inside myself,
I feel like I want to anger you back
because of the way you are with everyone else.
You always seem to put yourself ahead of me
and you don’t care about my life,
and when I turn my back to you,
soon enough there comes the knife.
I just don’t understand why you pretend so much,
You don’t give a damn about my soul,
You are to busy with a life of your own
to ever look inside to see what I behold.
I’ve cut my wrists for you, attempted suicide,
I’ve listened to everything you had building inside,
I’ve forgave so many damn mistakes
but I think It’s time to take you out of my life.
I can’t hold onto something that is losing grip,
I can’t be there for such hurt in the end...
I can’t take your lies and grief and pain
Goodbye to you because you’ll never be a great friend.

    nah, i am not at all selfish...wow i cant believe you said that but no i dont take it to offense and it is okay but ya know this girl...she just kinda keeps doing wrong to me so i cant stick by much longer...when she found i loved a guy she told him she loved him, when i told her my secrets she ran and told them, when i try to talk to her about things she wont listen to n e thing i gotta say really...she puts her smiles above my tears, ya know that sort of thing... i am not giving up all of a sudden...this has been the 4rth chance i have gave her and i have known her for a month or 2...i mean...i am sure u r not like this to ur friend...i am not offended at all so dont get offended when i say this but i wish u would know everything b4 u go on calling me selfish...if u knew me u would see that i am not...i dedicate my life to everyone else. but i am not gonna go into detail about it
