Notes About The Poem

Was I Asking For Too Much

i needed you
yet you were nowhere to be found

i needed you
a shoulder a smile or word

i needed you
somehow again you let me down

I had a one-sided friend for years, until I figured it out.

For years I was blind as a bat when it came to one-sided friends. Some people are just so darn good at it. Long overdue... I'm finally a little smarter about such bloodsucking vampires. We always hope to get a little smarter with age. LOL

Sometimes it's the people you would least expect that disappoint you... and the reverse is true ~ people are such strange creatures. You just never know.

Sometimes friendships get away for years being one-sided... up till put to the test.
