Worthless friend

by Barbi Taylor   Jan 4, 2007


She tried to contribute to the things we had
She would buy and give so it wouldnt go bad
Only the things she did were right
Everything I did was wrong
Even her family knew it wouldnt last long

I was ugly she was pretty
I was slow she was witty
She was rich I was poor
Thats why I couldnt take it any more

Letters, emails, telephone calls
It didnt mean anything at all
Weekend after weekend
Day after day
My family decided to move away

First visit back home showed the real her
I couldnt wait till the week was over
Years went by, two or three
We went to visit recently
Excitement was in the air
My old best friend took me everywhere

She told me stories of who and what
And that her newest friend was a total s!ut
She had changed and I did too
From everything weve all gone through

After I left that summer day
I knew my life wouldnt be the same
I went home and gave her a call
The conversation didnt last long at all
We both agreed, silently,
That it was the end of our friendship

I wrote a letter explaining how I felt
Her dad read it to himself
He didnt understand
He didnt care
About what had happened over there

I am forbidden to call, write, to talk to my old best friend
I had to walk away from everything we had
But I cant say the deal was all bad
She and I never fought
We both taught each other something too
Never get involved in a worthless friend

No matter what anyone said,
I was over it was dead
She tells our friend
Our friend tells me
What she has to say

Its okay, I understand
It was planned
Parents played the vital role
And finally it took a toll

I love her still
I always will
Shell always be my friend
We always said friends till the end
Maybe one day Ill see her again
Because shell always be my worthless friend
