Doormat

You took me in
As your best friend
Told me our friendship
Wouldn't ever end
For so long
I bought that lie
Thought you'd be my friend
Till the day I died
I noticed a change
In your attitude
But I ignored it, convinced myself
It was just a bad mood
Till the day you stopped calling
But I didn't give up
Clinging to a dieing friendship
I hoped for better luck
Then came that awful day
That you said you hated me
Stepping on me like a doormat
So unlike you used to be

    I liked this poem but for me it was a little cliche. But it's cliche to the extent that i can stand it. I enjoyed reading this because i could just relate to it perfectly. Good poem Thanks for entering :F

    ouch....
    this was a well written piece. I can certainly realate and it really strikes a chord in someone's mind which helps to make your point clearer.
    I especially enjoyed hte last bit of hte poem where you made the connection between you and a doormat. that was a nice use of a simile.
    overall, this piece flowed very nicely and had a strong emotion behind the lines of text- truely heartfelt and I htink that you were writting from somewhere deep.

    well done, fellow writter!

    Aw, very sad. My Dad once told me that a man is lucky to find even one true friend in life let alone a few. I am a lil older now and have found that to be true. True friendship is deep enough to endure...if the friendship doesn't, then they weren't really a "friend". For me at least. Nice work here!

    Writing is one way of getting over the past and getting on with the future. A sad tale that you have penned here, but it appears you can now move ahead and change directions. Go for it.
