So you've got yer man
I've got mine
What's the problem then?
My problem is that you'd rather spend
All your precious time
With him instead of me
I've been there from the start
He's your first, I can see that
But you're my first, can't YOU see that?
I've always made room for you in the past
Why can't you make room for me?
It hurt me so bad when you cut our time short
You knew my time was limited
Yet you left a few days early
It's been made easier for you to let me go
Because you have someone to fall back on
But once he's gone, who have you got?
No one, because you have never
Paid attention to the saying
'Boyfriends come and go
But friends will always be there'

I wrote this for the contest right now because I needed it out anyway. It's about my recently ex-ified best friend going away on holiday with her boyfriend a few days early, knowing that I had only been home from university a day.

I don't much care for your inaccurate verdict. This is a place for creativity, not bitching and the lingering around pettiness.

inaccurate
I found this poem as i was looking through contests. Laura, David has fuck all to do with my decisions... I'd rather have no1 than have you ruining the rest of my life. Im sorry, but thats the hard cold fact of it. And i'm not alone without him, I have people around me at home. Who is to say anyway that this relationship wont last, just because it's the first.. it stands a good chance of lasting longer than our friendship did.. and if it doesnt... so what? I'll be at university with new friends.. new adventures, without anything holding me back..
I wana add, you've never made room for me. you've just let me be in the same room while you bitch and moan for most of the time.
I also explained, that I knew we would end up fighting if we stayed around each other.. friday night prooved that for a fact, you knew i was going, but it didnt seem to bother you enough to move your ass to see me, so dont complain about me leaving to see some who cares about me and who I care about, when you couldnt even act like you cared. Why stay around somewhere when the only reason you were staying couldnt act like she gave a rats ass, when you could be with someone who really does care and likes to make sure I know it. -
oh, i'm sorry. thats a bummer. i can see how that one hurt. great write, i could feel the pain you were going through. just remember though, your friend does still love you tons, she's not trying to hurt you. though it does hurt, don't let the friendship go. one day she will need you more than anything in the world. i hope things go better for you. best of wishes!
