Beware Of User-Good For Nothing Friends... by fresh2impr: 12:03am On Dec 03, 2006
I have learnt the importance now more so than ever
Of developing comfort in my own skin
And avoiding the leanings of social pressure
To impress, seeking redress in materiality
Trying to stick your neck out for the brother
Who thinks you’re a fool
The one for whom others think
You are too good

We used to hang out and then
All of a sudden you became too good for me
As if I could not discern the difference
Between good and evil
But I give kudos to you, you had me there
Got me to think I could trust and rely on you
Just as a friend should and would
Even though my instincts told me not to


I now realise that selfishness is inherent
In certain personalities and who am I
To judge when its only a part of your making
Because I myself am not perfect
But with honesty comes diplomacy
And with friendship comes responsibility
And you have failed on all counts
And shown your limited understanding of what friendship is about


, ave had bad experiences with friends because I give 100% to all my relationships and sometimes people take this for granted. this was my way of getting a lot of anger out.
