Gone through
a hundred of them,
hoping to find
someone who would be there
through thick and thin
with me.
i shouldnt get my hopes up
because everytime i think
ive got a real friend,
they show me how they can really be
tell me lies,
get my secrets,
and try to own me.
sweet talk me and then,
BAM!
it hits me
and im left in the streets
crying, begging
for a real,
true friend.

i wrote this because sometimes when i think i had a true friend that i wouldnt lose, they backstab me and once again im left friendless. there was only one true friend in my life; someone who would never go behind my back:)

i feel the same way. you think something will last, but then they start playing a new sport & are caught up in the "populars". the ones, the every single one i've been friends with before but yet can't even remember my name.
