Years ago ... I once considered her my best friend we would go shopping and stop for lunch or just tea we liked to talk of all sorts of things she complimented my writing and art I liked her a lot I trusted her too and I thought she was loyal I never imagined cruelty that she would just turn disappear from my life ... gone with no reason or the explaining of why I left messages but with no reply I got the message loud and clear I tried to figure it out for I knew that I had done nothing wrong never spoke to her again or tried and that's okay I was just fine with being me though I did feel hurt and rejected, and I felt like ... I could never trust again _____________________ February 10, 2023 Poetry/Free Verse/Hurt and Rejected - IFL Copyright Protected, ID 02-1524-474-10 All Rights Reserve, 2023, Constance La France Written for the Standard contest, I Felt Like sponsor, Charles Messina, Judged 02/20/2023 Second Place

Congratulations on your win. What a wonderful story/write/picture. It is very hard when a dear friend hurts you. I have been there. Guess it is part of life. Sometimes we do not get the answers to our questions. The big one~why??? Hugs. Have a blessed day writing away........................

Paula, thank you so much for the congratulations and compliment. I took me a long time to realize it was her with the flaw not me, hugs and blessings, Constance

This is so sad, Constance. But I can relate to this...my bestie took off and moved out-of-state some twenty years ago. We had been best friends ever since we first met in grammar school. For some unknown reason he became a ghost to me and everyone he knew around our neighborhood. But like your mentioned "that's okay" it hurts...but life is too short to keep feeling pain and sorrow. Congratulations on your win! Charlie :)

Its more common than we imagine Constance She has fallen to repeating something that has In turn happened to her is my view on this.' Pray that she is released from her bondage in This' soup mail me her name (if you wish) i will Ask the same for her.' Also thank you for your Winning entry in my finalized contest.' There Were lots of well structured writes, that were Nowhere close to theme, I had to sidline Unfortunately.' I did read them however.' God Bless you Joe.'

Joe, thank you for your compassion, yes, I believe also that my experience has happened to many. It took me some time to realize that it was her with the flaw and not me. Thank you for my win in your contest, and yes, the same thing happens in my contest, some great poems entered that have nothing to do with my contest that have to be Na'd, blessing, Constance
