So you say that we will still be friends -
As long as it's all your way
You care about nothing, but what you want
Well, I have a few things to say --

I'm not here as a convenience for you,
When there's nobody else to be found
I've got better things to do with my time,
Than to wait till you come around

You've judged me far more than you had any right
You've not walked one step in my shoes,
And until the day you have been where I've been
I'll not worry about paying your dues.

You felt that you could hurt me
Said such mean and hurtful things
For thirteen years, I did all I could
And this is what your friendship brings.

So, I'll hand it all right back to you,
I don't need these crumbs you'll share
Take your offerings somewhere else
I no longer care if you're there.

way to tell em BSC!!!(smile)  sounds like this person needed a good reality check... great job..perfect declaration of moving on...JM

 You're going to hear my voice in the morning calling your name
And know my love and my desperation were one and the same...
Baby it's alright...
Take this pain and all this sadness
It's alright
Take this rain
You're going to be free...
Jackson Browne
*I love you baby*

Sounds like something I said to someone who used me, only I said it in my heart because they weren't worth the breath!  It was a long time coming but finally worth it.

Good on you Hon!!  Half the time I think people say that just to be polite, they have no intention of being friends, OR they just want to rub it in a bit!!  Glad to see you strong  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

Exactly the way I feel about a situation that has been going on for a few years now and has hopefully come to a conclusion in the past few weeks.   And I have come to the conclusion that I can live without her, so why would I want to live with her. james

I know exactly how you feel.  I just lost a friendship with a long time friend.  Posted a poem on it too just now, and now I read your poem.  Hang in there.  I know how you feel.
