I knew since that text, on the very first day,
Things were going to go my way.

I didn’t want you, I wanted a friend,
That didn’t happen, the rules would bend.

Because of you, friends were lost,
But that was not, the only cost.

I lost two halves, of my once whole heart,
Now that things, have fallen apart.

I’ve lost confidence, and self esteem,
I’m no longer on, the winning team.

I’ve lost the happy, feeling inside,
I’ve become numb, from the tears I’ve cried.

My anger inside, burns like a fire,
the flames no longer, burn with desire.

I’m mad at myself, for letting this go,
But it wasn’t real, it was all just a show.

Nothing was real, it was just a trick,
When I think about us now, it makes me sick.

Not because you lied, but because I fell for it all,
That has been the hardest fall.

Everyone's crazy. You know why? We all want to be normal. Well, we cant define normal, and, the people you can point at and say, well isn't he/she normal are rare. Doesnt that kind of defeat the pupose of normal? -My Friend

I'll take the congratulations, because, even though, the time I took writing this was an emotional and painful, sorry is not needed, as i have overcome that obsticle in my life and the subject of that poem has become a close friend becasue of the madness.

thank you:)

I can't begin to imagine the emotions that went into this. I don't know whether to say I'm sorry, or congragulate you for a truely stunning poem.
