FAKE FRIENDS

You Wanted Me To Be Your Brother

You wanted me to be your brother

To be a part of your extended family

I believed you

Since you seemed sincere enough

And got along well with most people

Thanks to your lively nature

And the dedication you seemed to show

As far as your work was concerned

I was in awe

Of the way, you managed your life

Juggling work and studies every single day

And yet manage to keep a smile on your face

I should have got an inkling

That there was something amiss

However, thanks to my ignorance

Induced by my autism

And because you played your part so well

I never got to see your true colors

Until it was almost too late

You wanted me to be your brother

And I was indeed a good brother

I was always there for you

But never did I imagine

That you would take advantage of me

In such a callous and audacious manner

When you had that rather painful shoe bite

I took care of you

Even though my other colleagues advised me against it

But you were never truly grateful

You kept your distance

And came up with a silly sob story

To prevent me from interacting with you at the ofce

I should have realized by then

What kind of a person were you were

Then again, I was woefully naive

And only wanted you to be happy

Even if it killed me from inside

You wanted me to be your brother

Well, I did my part

But you never did yours

When I rst started helping you nancially

I was doing it because I truly cared about you

And had a strong belief

That you would repay your dues eventually

Once again, like always

I was wrong

You came up with story after story

And I kept believing you

Thanks to my incredibly credulous nature

And thus ended up draining my bank balance

You wanted me to be your brother

Except that, instead of being your brother

I ended up being your sugar daddy

But then, like my mother said later

I was in a trance

And thus became your ATM

I have to admit, though

That you were a really good actress

Modulating your voice

To a mere shadow of what it usually would be

To induce me to believe

That you were suffering from a blood infection

Just one out of hundreds of lies

That came out of your pathetic mouth

You wanted me to be your brother

Except that a true sister does not lie or cheat

That too, not once

Not twice

Not even thrice

But a thousand times

You have absolutely no idea

How you've ruined my life

And brought distress to my family

As well as a very close friend of mine

Through your utterly despicable actions

You wanted me to be your brother

And it was the biggest mistake of my lifeYou wanted me to be your brother

Except that, instead of being your brother

I ended up being your sugar daddy

But then, like my mother said later

I was in a trance

And thus became your ATM

I have to admit, though

That you were a really good actress

Modulating your voice

To a mere shadow of what it usually would be

To induce me to believe

That you were suffering from a blood infection

Just one out of hundreds of lies

That came out of your pathetic mouth

You wanted me to be your brother

Except that a true sister does not lie or cheat

That too, not once

Not twice

Not even thrice

But a thousand times

You have absolutely no idea

How you've ruined my life

And brought distress to my family

As well as a very close friend of mine

Through your utterly despicable actions

You wanted me to be your brother

And it was the biggest mistake of my life

To take you seriously

You even had the nerve

To make me travel for 16 km

In the hot sun

Right in the middle of summer

To meet you

Just so that I could keep trusting you

Or rather, keep getting fooled by your lies and half-truths

You wanted me to be your brother

But you lied to me all the time

And cheated me of my entire savings

After all that you've done

You still have the nerve

To beg for my sympathy

You are a disgrace to women

A disgrace to the entire human race

Even ISIS is far more worth sympathizing with

Then you will ever be!!

Well, I would have ideally wanted you to suffer

In the most painful manner possible

But I need you to return all that you took

I don't care how you do it

Do it, and we can go our separate ways

I can forget that you exist, and vice-versa

But until you do it

I will always be your biggest nightmare

On this entire planet

When I am good, I am very good

But when I am bad, I am the worst

So, you had better watch out

My so-called sister
