Lacey

Do you really think you're the only one
Who's had it hard, who's had it rough?
Compared to most, you've had it easy. 
Maybe that's why most others are so tough. 
You complain and whine, scream and cry, 
Yet you do nothing to solve
The problems you create.
I must ask do you really hate it?
You create this drama, this mess out of your life
You keep the fight going and run back for more
Expecting a change when you keep things the same. 
A decade of the same. 
You run to me with years in your eyes, 
Hysteria in your voice, 
You want some pity and a shoulder and compassion.
After so long of the same though, and no compassion in return, it's getting really hard.
You've put so much weight on my shoulders, 
You've lifted none off of them I feel like I must run. 
Now I know you're back in the same situation
Back in the drama you love so much
Acting like the victim you really aren't.
You just can't do these things you do.
Lie about everyone and put blame on anyone, keeping things from your loved ones, 
Tell the whole world things that will make them hate everyone you "love".
One day karma will come calling, 
And the next thing you know, nobody will be there for your fall.

Since I can't put notes yet I will explain a little here. This girl was my best friends for 18 years and she got married at 21 and had a very troubled marriage. She would abuse get husband and she cheated on him from the beginning but when he'd get mad at her she would freak. She also told lies about everybody including myself and it was hard to stay her friend after finding this out. When I was going through a divorce she wouldn't allow me to speak of it but spoke of her BAD husband non stop

Thank you! I really love to write when I'm mad. Then I don't do things I'll regret later
