Your face seems to roll
And your eyes so skeptical stare,
Drown in your assumptions
Who really cares?

You think something’s wrong,
Something’s going on,
But you’re so blind.

Nobody likes you, friend,
But a crowd surrounds you
They drain your smiles,
Bathe in that light, friend,
It’s getting dark.

Haven’t seen you in ages.
No? No.
I’ve seen you.

Eager for your downfall,
How sad of me,
Did I take your comfort and leave you there?
How sad of me,
Lucky, friend,
You have your chance to take it back.
And you do,
So predictable.

We watch you from the walls,
Blooming.
They watch you too, notice your change,
And detest it.

You’ve grown out of me haven’t you?
These clothes don’t fit,
Go shopping, ah, a sale’s on,
Friends at half price,
Bargain.

Now, I just won’t do
So you take the closest thing,
Leave him alone, cow,
I hate him
But he is still mine.

Nobody likes you, friend,
Not anymore,
Smiles dropped like I,
The water isn’t so clear, friend,
Go home and cry.

Note: Ok, this is an odd one, I admit. But this "friend" has needed to flow from my pen. I have had enough. Any thoughts?

Maybe instead of so elaborately cutting your friendship, just let them go, and do it quietly. Maybe not a popular decision, but whats worse, cutting off your arm or just not using your hand? You asked for suggestions so... Nice poem.

God blesses.

this hit hard. it's not funny when many people surround you for something you're not.

different, hollow, but your explicative of this friend needing to flow from your pen was well put. i liked it.

i'll always need a friend, one i can defend.

GIS - "cutting off your arm or just not using your hand?" Scary to think about....sad to say, or not as the case may be, the friendhsip has long since expired, there is nothing left now.

Eve - That part, I felt, was the main idea of the whole poem, and so, the most true, and the most pathetic.

Lor - Bread. Instead of knocking on the door for me, she's knocking on the door for my brother. Ha, tables turned, instead of overprotective older brother, it's overprotective younger sister, I feel really put out. And thanks, for replying. Yeah, I guess I'm angry.

Thanks again!
