To Destroy Is All She Knows Poem by Alison Smith

She was given the opportunity
To have the close friends she desired
But again she will destroy it
What is this fear of Friendship?

Throughout her life
She has been hurt by friends
Now she is afraid to receive
Now she runs before the hurt can occur

She is stronger now
Maybe she can stand alone
No one must see her tears
Friends she must view from afar

She knows her actions
Have destroyed his friendship
But that has to be done
He must be free.
