Friends and Kin They Can'T Stand U Rise

When you move forth,
in your life;
There are friends and kin,
Who can't stand;
Your growth hurts;
Without realizing
How hard it was,
Foiling all painful hurdles,
In your way;
The past best friends,
Are now green-eyed; 
Anticipate your fall,
To the height they are;
Lose no chance to see,
Your painful moments;
Lay thorns in your way,
Some hug, 
Holding knife in back;
In their mind....
How can you grow,
When they can't,
In their life;
Ignore them, 
They are no real friends;
