Years ago,
From the very 1st grade,
Did I ever fail,
To be your shade?
Held your hand,
Wiped your tears,
Walked you through
All your fears.
I trod along,
your paths of fire,
Taking the blames,
So you could reach higher.
The vicious bullies,
I helped you ditch,
The times they called you,
An ugly fat bitch.
When I slipped one day
And my skies crashed down,
You watched me cry,
Like a freaking clown.
You helped him hurt me,
and tear me apart,
Enjoying the sight of,
Him ripping open my heart.
When I screamed in pain
And begged you to stop.
You watched me weep,
Burn and rot.
I heard your footsteps
leaving slow,
You left me helpless,
Watching my blood flow.
Friendship and love,
You failed to abide,
Indeed, it’s scary,
what a smile can hide.
So, it is True,
But it’s too Late.
Every friendship,
Has an expiry date.

Love this. When you live you’ll find that some friends are there for a lifetime, some are for a season, and some are life lessons. I believe this poem is something everyone should have at least experienced once in their lifetime.

You know what, when I say I had my heart coming to my throat, I mean it.
I am tried of saying that its painful, or that its amazing!!
But how?? I mean, how can you evoke these powerful emotions with such a perfection!!!
The last line just broke my heart!!!

when I read this I’ve a weird feeling that this is about an imaginary friend…its probably cause the words you’ve chosen has lent a certain sense of surrealism to your poetry but reading this makes your imagination run wild 😀 it’s like you are talking to a part of you that you couldn’t control. simplest words are usually with most impact you see 🙂 thanks for posting this awesome poem.
