Thread: Journeys end - wayward friendship.

I'm sorry to be blunt.
I'm sorry to be mean.
Even if it hurts your self-esteem.

I just can't hurt like this anymore.
I can't let you all do it.
Put me down on the floor.

You didn't Lose me to someone else.
You had your chance.
It's not my fault you chose yourself.

I begged and I pleaded.
I told you everything, and more.
I constantly told you what I needed.

Yeah I said you had another chance.
You now know how hard it is,
To be lonely, it hits the heart like a lance.

It's not Him over You.
You had your chance,
For a year or two!

After everything I have to deal with NOW,
I have to sit and ask myself,
My friend can push this on me, How?!

My closest, my heart, my confident.
You know how hard,
And painful my time is now spent.

And you have nerve to get upset,
Knowing the agony and the strain.
When my energy is all otherwise spent?

I'm trying so hard to hold on to me myself and I.
It's not even for me, it's for family.
Because I couldn't do it, I couldn't try;

To put myself before my mother,
Or my siblings and their happy home.
Even though my "grip" left with another.

Another life that was lost to me.
Maybe it's time to set you free.
Because maybe it wasn't meant to be.

It must be too much for you to be my friend,
But I understand, and won't hold it against you,
It's becoming apparent to me, that this is the end.

If this isn't close enough to the topic I apologize. But . . . this is what I felt like when I read the theme for this month, and recent events in my life have re-enforced that. I hope you enjoy either way.
