Telling My Life Through Poetry

I could write anything and people will believe it true 
rather than speaking to me they read a poem or two 
create a view 
one that suits
thinking that you judge me true 
are you somebody I once knew 
and now I do without 
did you fail me 
mentally unhealthy 
instead of interact 
believing all the people who thought I would be back 
those I gave a cold shoulder 
for years and years in fact 
thinking they must know me best 
while I kept them in the black
when they poked and prodded me 
regardless of my request 
I told them straight our days are done 
and they should let them rest 
while they told people we were sound 
and I was sorting out my head 
so I had to publicly announce 
our friendship was truly dead 
we’re you caught up in that confusion 
where did it come from? 
Talk to me and you’d reach a conclusion  
understand where I come from
I was the one avoiding my friends 
while they told you what went on 
All the while they talked pretend 
believed by all but wrong
I don’t like them that’s why I disappear 
I wasn’t away sorting my head  
And they control everything you hear 
believing every word they’ve said 
I’ll be back for the attention 
they said year after year after year after year after year after year after year
yep 7 years they stuck to that, 
loving the attention, making me look like I was mentally broken,
Playing the role they love the most, a caring friend, and one who’s close,
like they suffer because I suffer, oh how they self promote,
you know their fake right? In a fake light? I kicked them out my life
and you think it’s me not thinking clear, 
Do you believe what I’ve written here? 
We ain’t close and you ain’t near 
judging me on hear say and rumour 
You must be flipping weird 
you can think about me, freely as you choose
You’re somebody I don’t think of, you’re a nobody I once knew
