I thought...

by Angelwith1wing

I thought we were sisters and

That we could be completely

Honest with one another especially

Over a guy.

 

I thought I made it clear

That I still had feelings for him.

Honesty would have been nice

Over a lie that you repeated more than twice.

 

I thought I told you

That I don't feel comfortable about you liking him.

Honestly, I thought as a friend you would put our friendship first

Over a guy that was clearly mine to begin with.

 

I thought you would stop pursuing him and

That you cared enough about my feelings.

Honestly, I thought you would take that into consideration and get

Over the guy I liked.

 

Well I thought wrong

For you and him were hanging

Out all along.

Foolishly, like a puppet on a string,

You played me

This whole time.

With my foolishness and tiny dignity,

I walked through the hallways of our school

Around all those who knew

The Lie

Carry the shame on my back in pain.

 

I thought we were sisters and

That we could be completely

Honest with one another especially

Over a guy.

 

I thought wrong and I thank God for

That lesson was well learned.

Honestly, I pray that God blesses the both of you, but I'm

Over the dishonesty and sisterhood that badly turned and burned.

<p>You are so honest, it's inspiring!</p>

<p>Thanks! But there is more to the story which I can not tell. I asked all my friends and they told me that what she did was wrong for she wasn't being honest about her feelings toward&nbsp; the guy I liked. At the end of the day, I did let them be happy with each other, but I couldn't be friends with her anymore for she fought for him behind my back while I was still trying to&nbsp;get to know him and him get to know me. When it comes to sisters, you do not betray&nbsp;a sister&nbsp;by taking her guy. Thanks for the comment though. God bless and keep writing on my friend:)!!!&nbsp;</p>

<p>I dont think that what your friend did was wrong. If she really liked the guy and especially if he liked her back than you should have been more open to their relationship even if you still liked him. Sometimes you have to put other people's happiness before your own. she should have told you though instead of hiding it from you and then you having to find out on your own.</p>

<p>very talented</p><p>i would like to work on writing poems with you and inspire people as a community</p>

<p>Thanks! It was tough letting go of a sister until I realize she wasn't a true sister. I learned a valuable lesson to be careful who I trust, and that not all sisters are good friends. So I let go of her and let God handle the situation. I thank you, once again, for the support and the advice. It really does mean a lot. God bless you and keep writing on my friend:)!!!</p>
