Friends Are Suppose To Be

Friends are suppose to be 'til the end
One's that I've had were just pretend
People don't care about loyalty and trust
Throwing family values away...it's unjust
Everyone forgets to give...only looking to gain 
Things we learned growing up became in vain 
Betrayal and backstabbing shouldn't be used
This behavior can caus hearts to be bruised
Then surrounded by awful thoughts
Guilt will come...causing you loss

You, I could share everything with
But I know that was just a myth
You pretended to listen and care
When all you wanted was more despair
Taking everything I ever said
And using it against me instead
You just turned everything around
To make sure you knocked me back down
Making friends shouldn't be so hard
But me having trust, you have scared

Hey Misty, came. This is such a heart wrenching poem from you. It is sad to discover that everyone you meet and smile with is not your friend. Society makes you think that just because you hang out, laugh and party together that people are your friends. Not so. Real friends are few and hard to come by. Stop sharing so much of your personal life and business with people until you have spent a few years getting to know them. It sounds like a long time but it is worth the wait. Be Blessed, Neva
