He Calls It Friendship Who will be next To end up being hurt Believing in his words Falling for the flirt Who will be next In the being led astray Holding broken heart A new victim of prey Who will be next In answering his need Feeding hungry egos In fulfilling his greed Who will be next To wait in this queue He finds lonely hearts To weaken and chew Who will be next In becoming his toy Bouncing on strings To tease and destroy Who will be next In letting barriers slip All take the warning He calls it friendship Hope ©2001 |

Hope, this sounds personal, I hope it isn't *HuGS* Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |

All too often the prey...this speaks volumes of hurt...but very nicely done. |

I love this poem, but it puts me in mind too, that perhaps we see what we want or need to see in situations like this..then judge a friend too harshly.  Anyways..it made me think. enjoyed. Sometimes the heart needs the solace of solitude and silence. |

I think I actually heard that "SLAP"! lol  If this is based on a true-life experience, you have my prayers that you'll be strong and that you won't be hurt like that again. Jenn made an interesting comment that I'll add to. Although there are unfortunately a lot of men out there who are pigs, there are also many who don't realize what kind of signals they may or may not be giving. I am an incorrigible flirt (lol) and I have many female friends but I'm harmless. Other's might not see my flirtations the same way. Just food for thought.... - Jeff |
