Another friendship gone,
Without the chance to last
Now lies discarded
In the dust of the past.
All my emotions are muddled;
They confuse how I feel,
But then it strikes me hard;
And the pain is all too real
The time has come to say goodbye
You used to be my friend.
But I always felt I was never yours
And so we reach the end.
It seems so hard
To accept.
That the one you thought
Knew you best,
Was all the time
Behind your back
Stringing you along;
Planning the next attack.
That while you turned to her
To confide,
Her interests lay
In your demise.
Where we used
To wear loving smiles
Now lies an abyss
Made of miles.
You knew my heart,
And so much more,
Now I wish I knew
You like this, before.
Too much was said;
Too many wrongs to try
And so it ends
My friend, goodbye
Author notes
just rattled this off now; certainly not one of my best but I will work on it. the rhyme is deliberately disjointed in parts; as are the changing line lengths - i can remember back to when i lost my [best] friend due to, as you've said, her pushing things that little bit too far, and when i was writing about this friendship loss, i'd go from being rational to irrational, rhyhme to free verse, simply because both my mind and heart were so sick with pain and misery that i couldn't think straight. so i tried to bring that back to life here x

Your ex-friends loss. Move on to find authenticity in your next friend.

i liked it...
i know what its like to have a best friend just stab you in the back. it happened to me in 6th grade and 7th grade. She stole from me, and lied to me. She almost stole my cellphone if someone wouldnt have found it before she left.
i hope you're feeling better, because any friend like this isnt worth having ^_^
