Lies

Moving on from a narcissistic friend

By Visionary GhostwriterPublished 6 years ago 1 min read
Picture taken by me. Even in the toughest environments we still bloom.

I thought you were my best friend,

You said, “I'll always be there”,

But like always you disappeared,

With not even a word spoken,

You always said "friends forever",

But we know I never mattered

Everything you said was a lie.

Finally walking away hurt so much,

But staying, questioning, wondering,

The never-knowing-why

Was so painful.

Everything I said to you

Always came from the heart

So much passion and 10 years spent ,

On such a shitty person.

I tried to see past the bad times,

Because I knew who you could be,

But you would never amount to,

The person I once saw in you.

I’m working on a new me now,

And you’re not a part of,

My brand-new equation

I’m going to show the world

Someone new.

I like the me I am

Without you.
