Nick Trim Poet Rhyme

That Friend Proud of Their Lies

My worth is not something other people can dictate 
in the group that love you there’s always a few who hate 
the wolf dressed as a sheep may turn out to be your best mate 
for everything you do for them they don’t appreciate 

They think they are better though it doesn’t seem to be 
when you get the attention and the love they never see 
the narcissist within them feels entitled to believe 
in a skill they have in them that stops you going free 

Wont hesitate to make you look as though you’re full of flaws 
Spreading rumours you’re useless to make you look a tool 
and say they always help you out for no return at all 
as if they’ve given everything and been treated like a fool 

They think of you as someone who is always in their debt 
the very few favours they do they won’t let you forget
calling in that same favour more times than you’d expect 
and if you don’t do what they want they’ll show you they’re upset 

The friend who’s proud to lie is no friend to be beside 
you’ll watch as they lose everyone and you’re the next in line 
you better pray you know enough to see ahead in time 
just to be the one who made them lose their flipping mind
