Worn…
I’m only human,
Not a robot or a machine,
I want to be there for you,
And I want to be able to do anything for you,
Still,
When you take advantage of me,
And use me to fuel your own selfish desires,
Then how can I trust you?
How can I say that I love you,
And how much more do you want from me?
All I’ve done in our friendship is be there for you and help you,
Yet you still use your friends to attack me,
And you steal from me until I have nothing left to give you,
Is this the mark of our friendship?
Is this the extant of our love?
From the day we met,
I’ve trusted you and taken care of you,
But you can’t see that, can you?
So… I guess this is goodbye old friend,
And I hope you do well in life,
Even though we may not be friends any longer,
I will still pray for you,
And care for you…

Awesome job. I love the ending in this baout still caring for your friend. Somehow there is always something that will make a person do that no matter how bad things are. I really like how you wrote this and the emotion you put into it. Good luck and thanks for entering!
