Is This A Friend Poem by louis rams
Is This A Friend
i thought i saw you standing there
from the corner of my eye.
i thought i heard your voice
telling all those lies.
i thought when i met you
that you was truely a friend
and that you would be with me
til the very end.
then you started to hurt me
with all your deceit and lies
my heart was torn and crushed
i felt that i would die.
living life is hard enough
especially when you lose that trust.
you confide in a person
all your inner most secrets and thoughts
never knowing that their silence
'had to be bought'.
now your life is an open book
for all the world to see
for the one that you trusted most
was full of hypocrisy.
HENRY FORD once said
'my best friend is the one who brings out
the best in me'.
but you! he did not see.
and B.B. KING said ' the beautiful thing
about learning, is no one can take it away from you.'
and i found this to be true.
so i shrug my shoulders and raise
my head up high.
for the learning expierience
will outlive you and i.
i will search again, for someone
in who to confide.
someone who will be there
always at my side.
now this is a wonderful poem, the key to life is frendship and sadly many of my 'friends' have not kept all my darkest secrets and theyre floating around somewhere, anyways this is yet another of your poems going into my favs! ! :) Love Heather Stephens
Great write Louis, A hard lesson to learn but another way to give is to just put it out there and watch the reaction with a don't give a s**t attitude. Those remarks never seem to go as far. Still a great poem put well together.10++
We have all had similar experiences.But that does not make it any less painful. I wish you a better friend the next time around. Very touching. Kind regards, Sandra
Everyone experience this thing at some point of time in their life.........as saying goes.....you can share your secret with 2 person if both of them are dead.........God write..........10+++........
