You were my best friend,
you promised to be there
for me until the end.
But now I hate everything about you.
I fought when you were scared,
I was strong when you were weak.
I picked up the pieces when your world fell apart.
I gave you everything,
because you held a special place in my heart.
You were my best friend.
But now I hate everything about you.
Putting your happiness before mine,
Should've been a sign that something was wrong.
But you always chimed the same song.
Something was wrong,
where were you when I was scared!
Where were you when I was weak!
And then you let me fall my world fell
crumbling to pieces,
before your eyes.
Now I'm keen to your lies.
I hate everything about you!
Finally I found something to make me happy,
something to make me smile.
You couldn't be happy for me
every once in awhile?
I was happy and wanted you to know.
To share it with you...
My best friend.
Then my happiness came abruptly to an end.
Some friend you are!
You are by far the worst!
I hate everything about you!
You jealous little freak!
Finally I ws happy,
and my happiness you did seek!
You ripped my heart out and threw
it on the floor.
Lying there crying
you left me on the floor.
You betrayed me.
I thought you were my friend.
But I guess we've reached our end.
I hate everything about you!
but I'll still be here...
as your friend

Not exactly how my situation has gone, but I have to say that I wholeheartedly agree. I know 2 people like this and I unfortunately have gotten little to nothing out of our friendship/relationship...Great way of putting it
-
very true. friends can turn their backs on you and all but somewhat if ur heart is pure ull still be there for them in the end.

Powerful...pierced through and through
This poet really spoke the words boldly on both sides
of the topic...how it feels to be clawed by jealousy,
and envy feeling the betrayal powerfully!
You just have to applaud a poet who can unleash like
this fearlessly...as this is an easy topic to skirt around..and this poet certainly didn't hold back.
It is true..we walk fine lines..in friendships...and
families.
the "need" and "rewards" we receive, or Expect..
maybe even unknowingly.
and when those balances tip...ouch!
this must be how it feels!
ears/Seattle well done! probably scared
the daylights out of all of us!

towards th middle end you reall grabbed my attention, the beggining is a little bit weak to me, my favorite lines were
"You jealous little freak!
Finally I ws happy,
and my happiness you did seek!
You ripped my heart out and threw
it on the floor.
Lying there crying
you left me on the floor."
also i didn't expect the ending part, i love poems with a twist at the end.
"I hate everything about you!
but I'll still be here...
as your friend"
this is just like me, even though friends aren't friends all the time and backstab you i still try to make the best of thing. i don't go around gossiping about them just because they did to me.
thank you for entering and good luck
