A Friend


 

My life shattered

Within moments of time

The evil tear between my dreams

Damaged and broken only to be thrown away

Spirit lingering near behind

My heart ripped hastily

The gore of the pain

Rumors that dared to be true

A friend?

What urge did she obtain?

To kill passion

To kill lust

In one human being

How dare that immoral wench?

She dared to be the holder

Of an event so unlike its brothers

A murderer of defenseless souls

A serial killer of one’s mind

A cold blooded tyrant

Of all humanity

An emblem of adversity

My friend?

No, never

She ruined everything I had to offer

She slaughtered my entire honor

She ripped every single

Last bit of angelic breath I owned

From my aching core

This, thing

Was nothing

Is nothing to me

A friend?

Does not develop

The audacity to crush

Their friend’s hopes and dreams

They are to love you

To be there when the world is falling all around you

They are supposed to shelter you

When people are destroying you

They are to be but an angel

And a gift

How they shall ruin you?

Is all up to them

But in the end

You decide to only associate
