I Thought You were My Friend

Tweet

Your fangs exposed behind the smile While you twist the knife a little deeper I saw what you try to hide from the world For you made me your keeper. I never wanted to try to fix you But you were always in my face Confronting me with your sickness And robbing me of my grace. The tracks across my heart tell a tale Of character that is out of fashion I lived a life where I came last My weakness is my compassion. I never wanted to try to fix you But you can't say the same You projected on me your flaws to correct I was a pawn in your ego game. You abused a friendship I freely gave The trust I had in you I am taking it back, you can't betray me again What else would you have me do? Have you ever had someone you thought was a friend and then they betrayed you? What happened? What did you do to move past the betrayal?
