A So - Called Friend Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Taciturn voices turning inward, seeking revenge for sinful
deeds done unto them.

Quietly raging, fuming inside, because liars are tiptoeing
behind friend's backs.

Stabbing repeatedly with covert attacks, blowing up good
people's names and defaming their character.

Loose tongues wagging away confidential information and
pretending they haven't.

Horrible untrue stories being told throughout, being spread
and gossiped about abundantly, no respect for anyone's
feelings save that of their own.

Looking straight into eyes, questioning their validity,
being ignored by the darting of theirs, afraid to meet
anyone's eyes, because they have told so many lies.
