Sometimes you're such a sweet guy
Other times I wonder why
you don't treat me the way I deserve
You never think before saying the words
Too late to take them back
When they've already been heard
I'm never amazed
by your selfish ways
Everything is always about you
I thought a friendship consists of two
If a little of your time is too much to ask
What is going to make this friendship last?
I need you to be there for me
To listen to me carefully
When I need you, you hide
You're supposed to encourage me to strive
Yet you walk away
So I get a good view of your back
How would you feel If I acted like that?
No matter how much I do for you
You show no appreciation
No matter how much I talk to you
Theres just no communication
You're my friend when it's convienient for you
Now I see when it comes to real friends
I only have a few.

RosePetal...it can be so frustrating when
someone we love is in the ME mode....
When you want it to be the WE mode..

I have been on both sides of this fence...
as the receiver and the giver...fortunately
I am learning more each day that WE are
what is really important...not ME...

Sadly this is often so, ego's so big and hearts so small there isnt any room for anyone else. Your words have touched me, thank you for sharing.

Take care,
Olias.

(big hugggsssssssss) I know just how you feel, and you deserve to be treated so much better and loved for who you are, an angel to us all. But deep down, I feel that it is better to have a few friends that are very true and close rather than have many friends that are distant, and I am so very happy to be one of your best friends, just as you are one of the best friends I'm so lucky to have. (sigh) I love you, sweet Joanna! (kiss on lips) You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Joanna, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
