You Think

Published by Family Friend Poems October 2008 with permission of the Author.

You think you're so good.
Think you're so perfect in everything.
You think you can control my mood.
Please, you must be joking.

I gave you all my heart.
I believed in everything you would say.
I trusted you from the start,
and everything went your way.

I guess I made my biggest mistake
when I became loyal to you.
You're one of those friends who is fake
in everything you say and do.

I thought your kindness would last.
But now I feel so used.
Because when I think of the past,
I thought you'd never give my heart a bruise.

Why did I ever rely on a word you said?
What did I ever do to deserve this pain?
I trusted you, but you hurt me instead,
And I don't know if I could believe you again.

I always smile at school and I try to be kind yet I'm dying on the inside, all the memories we shared the friendship we had, it didn't last for long. now I'm sitting here trying to figure out why it all went wrong. And I'm feeling so lost with this emptiness inside and the tears that I cry are you telling me its time to say goodbye. I'm looking at the pictures we made and I can't help but feel alone I wish that I can turn back time and make it all okay. Ill try to move on but its hard with all this dread inside. I'll hold onto the memories we made and hope that someday the pain will fade.

I loved this poem because it is very relatable, and I had a friend just like the poem. I even wrote a song about her, but now I hate her guts. I saw this, so I decided to send it to my ex-best friend, but she hasn't responded. I was her friend, and the last time we talked was in August of 2022. She left me and my other best friend, and I loved both of them. But now I am glad that the ex-friend doesn't talk to us anymore.

I know how it feels to be betrayed. I got betrayed by my cousin. He betrayed me and my family. I trusted him, and the next thing I know is he is stabbing me in the back.

I just feel the same way I was betrayed by someone I thought was my best friend, but she wasn't. She took away my lover my everything. She stabbed me in the back.
