seperate ways

there is only so much a person can take
only so long a person can wait
no more heartache filled days
its time to go our seperate ways
after 10 years i thought we could
still be friends
but no this taking me for granted has to end
i stood by you no matter what live threw my way
i was always there to listen every day
my loyalty as a friend remained the same
 but in my toughest time you turn round to say
i will call you now and again
so its time for me to go
and find friends anew
now we are like strangers
so many lies and decipt
i guess after all 
i never knew you. 

the truth always comes out in the end
cherio my old friend.  

God has better plans for me 
and  that's not to wait around for you
for this will never be
like the sun i rise
no tears in my eyes
bright and shiny
this new journey i begin
freedom galore
so many blessings to come
just round the corner
so much is instore   Amen 

cherio  

Jeremiah 29:11
11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Amen

Good one Diane. Human friendships come and go and thrive then fail. But we know that we have a friend who will never desert us or throw us under the bus.
