Friendship Is Hard
Friendship is hard
It is like wearing an old sweater some days
The yarn becomes unfrayed
Other days it's like a pair of high heel shoes
Wobbly and crooked is my gait
Some days it seems no matter how hard I try
It's like pulling teeth trying to communicate
It's just seems awkward to try
Mind reading and mind bending
It's like jogging in the park at dark--scary and unnerving
Some days I wonder why I even try
Is this effort worth it all?
I am just too shy and nothing comes out right at all?
At the risk of sounding too critical
I'm just no good at this initiation phase
Starting all over is the worst part of the fall
Shall I quit or start all over again?
