When the Uninvolved Get Involved

She spoke surly 
knowing both sides of the story 
my side had been spoken for me 
I did not look good or sporting 
this is why she didn’t support me 
I asked her what do you know 
She told me she knew it so 
Knowing how the story go
Arguing the facts I’d show 
I asked her why she think she know this 
haven’t heard my side and not a witness 
why argue every point I list 
I know your presence was a miss 
but she insisted she knew both sides 
I’m like how when you ain’t heard mine 
she’d heard my side from the other person 
surprisingly I came out the worst one 
I explained both sides means two versions
From both involved not just the first one 
She asked why claiming that’s not true 
because both tell it to win over you 
You heard one side where I looked bad 
believing it without asking back 
Now go away you’re not involved 
You’ll never hear my side be told 
God the people I put up with 
Go away you stupid muppet

Literally lasted about a month on Facebook, she argued everything she wasn’t even involved, it was my situation I was the witness I was the victim she was defending some who broke my stuff lost nothing and blamed me for breaking my stuff I stood there and watched him break it, I don’t know why the outcome was one she thought she’d change as if I wouldn’t tell him to get lost and take the blame lol
