what is wrong with the world today?

What is wrong with the world today?
Can’t you take those words and throw them away?
You just see me through her eyes
Your mind is corrupt with her lies

How did I let her get so much power?
Her fist is raised and I watch people cower,
Her diseased mind is so introverted,
She will distort your thoughts I know for certain.

I let her meet people, for whom I would fight,
Along with my respect she took part of my life,
what hurts me the most is that you fell for it,
I try so hard but I can’t ignore it.

My main regret, is that I was not strong,
I let this all happen and I know that was wrong,
But that does not excuse the way she acted,
Leaving my loved ones so infected.

What is wrong with the world today?
A girl like this can lead you astray,
You saw me through her eyes,
Your mind was corrupt with her lies.

Its not right that she feels superior,
when she is a cheat, a lie and down right inferior,
Cant you just wake up and see,
This picture she has painted is nothing like me?

Author notes

yeah, all this is true. I had this friend and she started getting to know some of my mates and once she became jealous of me (but that's another story)..and yeah after that she started telling my mates lies about me and turned them against me and shes one of those people who has a lot of power over everyone.. but don't worry, i have real friends now.

what do you think about this poem?

    Very well done. Lots of feeling behind the words. I have had the same thing happen to me but I was too far away to fight it. At least you know who your true friends are after a thing like that. Unfortunately sometimes you find that you never had any to begin with... that was my fate. Hope all goes well for you.

    Yes, I relate to this, I was there once upon a time. That is why they tell you keep your friends close and your enemies closer. I'm glad to hear you have found yourself a set of new friends who don't buy into the bullshit. Hang on to them, because real friends are all too hard to find! Nice write, too!

    This is beautifully written. I am sorry that happened to you, but I am glad you have real friends in your life now. Some people need to think about things before they decide what and who to believe. Great job!
