* Sniffle-Cough-"B***h" *

Some "friends" can blind your thoughts.

Tell me now, what it is you feel,
Tell me how, how a friendship can become one sided
and beyond surreal...
How do you keep something like that locked away
For two and a half years...?
For so long, you swore up and down that we were as close as could be -
When in reality,
Silently,
You couldn't stand the thought of me.
I realize I talk about my past,
A hell of a lot of the time.
And the little things too...
But the little things add up fast,
So, when did self pitty become the crime?
No one said you had to stick by my side,
But you did - and the whole damn time it was a bloody lie!
You never once spoke up and told me to leave,
Instead you sat there and lead me to believe,
That everything was fine between myself and you,
While in the back of your mind, you just couldn't wait
For the God damned day to be through.
I tugged on your perfect little world
Until you became annoyed enough to kick me off.
And we could play the, "he said, she said", game,
But I'd rather not,
I seem to have come down with a slight cough...

i felt this poem. it was personal. so many times we have people in our lives, pretending to be friends, when secretly in their souls, they really can't stand us and we don't understand why. you've expressed this nicely in your poem. the title is witty & the ending is perfect. delightful read.

I like it, not sure what the exact meaning is for you but, I can relate to the poem on a couple levels. It's pretty good, a few parts a stretching the rhyme scheme a bit.
