Them

by Nathanilliam   Apr 9, 2008


Why do you hate me?
why do you ignore me,
push me away when you're
with them?

Do I embarrass you?
make you look foolish?
why do you hurt the one
who befriended you
all those years ago?

I helped you when you
needed a true friend,
someone who listens
and cares and plays.

We soared over worlds,
to adventures untold,
where no one could
hold us back.

Now your gone,
leaving me alone
to find my way
once you met
them.

    To be ignored is one of the most hurtful things. To hold us close when alone then push us away while in the presence of others hurts not only our hearts but .... our spirit as well

    This stanza speaks of the beautiful memories ... and to have them crushed is heartbreaking

    Gosh I remember the times so well when a friend (well one I thought was a friend) would get swept away by a new boyfriend and our friendship dwindled.
    Such heartbreak your words echo.

    AH! I know how you feel! That hit it perfectly! I honestly felt that one deep down. I love how simple it was, but yet how full of feeling it was.
    It all flowed so nicely, and there werent any rocky patches! great job!
