do you think your the only one?
the only one that hurts
get over yourself
hurting comes with life

you come to me with your problems
can i come to you with mine?
o wait, nevermind i forgot
your the only one with problems

im always there for you
are you there for me?
oops my bad
your the only one with problems

you think your the only one
the only one with problems
get over it
i have problems too

i disagree. when i said this:

you come to me with your problems
can i come to you with mine?

it means that the person(s) comes to me with their problems because im their friend, but whenever i try to come to them with mine they arent there for me. thats what this poem is talking about. im not meaning that this person cant come to me any longer because of this. im still their friend. they just arent there for me when/if i need them.

lol you snuck in and edited on me albert. im gonna keep this up though in case anybody else misunderstands.

True friends should be able to talk as well as listen.  And I know from first hand experience that when the listening part is missing, it kinda sucks.  Maybe you should tell this person that you need 4 them 2 listen, because maybe they don't realize their errors?  I like this poem though.

i have felt this way in a lot of friendships i've had and it is always hard to be the one to have to carry all the weight.  i hope you have someone to talk to about things because a sitation like this can really weigh you down after a while.  you wrote this very well, great job on this piece.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.

I guess this person is not a true friend.  it should go both ways, and if doesn't i suggest you go look for a another friend.

there are too many people like that in the world..im shur i've been like that before..i think you just kinda have to express to the person what your feeling and they'll change it...but thats from my own experience..hope your friends become truer

Don't we all?
Nicely done. I liked the poem.
way to vent.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily
