You were my friend
When you had every right to leave me alone
I took your heart in my hand and crushed it
to bits

I was so full of anger
I lashed out at everyone
Including you
Especailly you
But to me you remained true
A true friend

I know what I did
I remember who I was
And I just want to tell you that's not me
The anger is gone
I'm free
To be
The friend you need

So you can yell at me
You can scream
Me you can even demean
It's your turn now
Don't hold it all in
Say what you feel
Tell me what you mean

with you

if this person is really your friend? Then they understand you were going through a rough time. It's not always about taking turns, it's just about being there for each other, and knowing that sometimes, we hurt the ones we love...without meaning to. I hope things go well for you and your friend

A friend who will ride out the storms with us is a great value - enjoyed your expression of appreciation-

The significance of friendship shows itself in our times of need by opening the doors of communication. Well done!

Jacqueline~

I was moved by this offering~

Friendships are often strongest after they've been tested a time or two~

I think you made a wonderful word-gesture to your friend ... I hope they take you up on it~
(except that they *HUG* you instead of word-lashing out in anger or revenge)
Never gets the job done ... does it ?
