Stabbed By Your False Friendship

I thought you were different than
All my other so called friends
Who were nice in front of me
But told nasty bad stories
Behind a back that was stabbed
By the lies that always grabbed
Attention from lies so bold
That wrapped me with a tight hold
Never easing up and strangled
A little more when you dangled
Your two faced evil smile
That you hid with flare and style
Pretending you have been so true
Unfaithfulness is cracking through
The holes inside your dark heart
Now I see right from the start
You were just like all the rest
Your loyalty was so far less
Just like every other friend
That knows how to break and bend
My spirit that's dying fast
From everyone in my past
Saying they'll always be here
My hearts now being aware
People are just mean and cruel
Making me look like a fool
Everyday I learn and live
I'm never going to give
One more piece to anyone
I am strong and finally done
Being used for entertainment
My friendships under containment
No more giving it away
In a deep cell it will stay

I think that everyone can relate to this poem. We have all been stabbed in the back, a time or two, by a "friend". You write from your heart, and are not afraid to tell it like it is. I admire that! Really great work, Robin!...Thank you for the wonderful comments, as always!
