Changed Me Forever

They let me down now put me down harsh views of me all around town no one has seen me or heard a sound I fell down in a pit of trouble wasn’t offered a hand or a cuddle snowballing mind evermore muddled an additional “you lie” ball to juggle In my struggle they say I’m pathetic no one looks and no one gets it brainwashed sure fake’s projected you took my life and chose to wreck it Believe a false reputation to justify treating a guy a joke and sly Clown to laugh at because he lies open up your stupid eyes I conclude you don’t even care I helped you and I was there now I act unkind unfair you think it’s come out of no where Think I was denied attention and now seek more when did I want attention before? Fighting a battle you give me a war and I’m being eaten away at the core Was a people person kind and thoughtful then people treated me unkind and awful an act for an act and the acts reward answering how you answer my call since you’ve seen the new me not the guy labelled comically which you helped kill setting free this guy living life selfishly Now like you yet can be the old me too but I'll never be him when I'm around you you cared so little and haven't a clue why I am now so hostile and rude

Ooooh, this piece really hits home. My husband and I can both relate to this so much. Hope you are in a better place now with better (real) friends. People like that aren't worth dealing with!!

thank you Rhona i'm glad you and your husband relate, i'm sure many do, I think the lesson is treat each an individual and not turn on all, it is only that individual who is the f**king fool lol life is better now I realise lol hope you and your husband are happy
